Enjoy the stunning sunrise over Lake Huron. The breathtaking glow of the lake awaits you.
Located on the eastern shore of Lake Huron in Michigan's thumb, Harbor Beach is surrounded by farmland and woods. The
area offers an outdoor lover's paradise with unlimited opportunities for boating, sailing, fishing, swimming, scuba diving,
water skiing, vacation, and fun family recreation opportunities throughout the whole year. A bicycle/pedestrian
walking path connects the campground, marina, parks, beach, and the community's business district. The world's largest
freshwater man-made harbor provides great fishing opportunities from aboard a boat, or from the break wall. Trescott
Park is an access site for the new Tip of the Thumb Heritage Water Trail, a 90 mile trail along Lake Huron's coast line. |
Rich in history, there is much to
see in the Thumb of Huron County. The Chamber of Commerce is proud of the six scenic parks, two historical museums,

The Harbor Beach Chamber of Commerce strives to
promote the businesses within Harbor Beach and the surrounding areas. Through community events such as Souper Saturday,
Harvest Festival, Carriage Art Show, and Citywide Garage Sales, the Harbor Beach Chamber of Commerce works to better the
community in which we live. The Annual Harbor Beach Maritime Festival is a terrific opportunity to enjoy a weekend of
great water sports, entertainment, and fun in the sun.
The
fun and adventure does not end when the weather turns cold. Hunting and fishing flourish for the year round sportsman for
small game and whitetail deer. Sportsmen and women can access Lake Huron through a municipal and local private marina.
Crisp snow-white winters create sparkling scenes and perfect conditions for snowmobiling, sledding, cross-country skiing, ice
fishing, and picture taking.
Harbor Beach is home to nearly two thousand residents in its city and surrounding area. An excellent kindergarten through
twelfth grade school district serves the community. The local government is truly concerned about the needs of its
residents. A skilled hospital provides excellent health care to the community. A first-rate fire department and full
time police department help residents and visitors enjoy the safety and security of small town living.
