The Best Cleveland Beaches You Need To Visit
Summers in the city can be stifling. With the local humidity on the rise, it is time to go to the beach. Cleveland beaches are easy to access and perfect for a lazy day in the sunshine. Whether you are looking for a lakeshore close to home or want to go for a drive and get out of town, and feel the lake breezes; here are the best Cleveland beaches you need to visit.
Headlands Beach State Park –
A must-see Cleveland area beach is Headlands Beach State Park. This area has plenty of sand for you to spread out your blankets and towels. Depending on the day, real waves crash regularly against the shore giving this park more of an ocean feel. Headlands scenery is perfect for a photo shoot, especially with its historic lighthouse in the distance. Bring an extra pail if you love sea glass. Treasure hunting for bright blue, green, even red bits of sand-worn glass is a summer tradition.
Headlands Beach State Park is located at 9601 Headlands Rd, Mentor, OH 44060.
