点评:This is an excellent family or group activity that ends at one of the best beaches in the area. The process is simple, reasonably priced, and the paddle down the Platte is beautiful. As with many summer attractions, it can get VERY busy. We always go earlier in the morning, have a great paddle/swim, and end up at the beach for a picnic. Parking is ample in the morning, but fills up quickly. You need a Sleeping Bear park pass for 2 of the lots ($25 for 7 days), or pay $5 for the small municipal lot. If lots are full, you park along the road, but remember you still need a park pass to park there! You can also bring your own paddle board, canoe, kayak and launch it yourself across the street. They offer shuttle service to get you back to you car, even if you don't rent. Not sure of the fee.
Pack a lunch and hang out on Platte beach which has the warm river outlet, and the refreshing Lake Michigan waters.
This is also an excellent trip to do in September when the fish are spawning. Most vacationers are gone, the river is very quiet, and the amount of wildlife you will see is incredible.
翻译:这是一项绝佳的家庭或团体活动,最终目的地是该地区最好的海滩之一。过程简单,价格合理,划桨下来的盘子很漂亮。与许多夏季景点一样,这里可能会变得非常繁忙。我们总是早上早些时候去,划船/游泳,最后在海滩野餐。早上停车位充足,但很快就满了。您需要一张睡熊公园通行证才能进入其中 2 个场地(7 天 25 美元),或者支付 5 美元购买小型市政场地。如果停车位已满,您可以将车停在路边,但请记住,您仍然需要公园通行证才能在那里停车!您还可以携带自己的桨板、独木舟、皮划艇,然后自己将其发射到街对面。即使您不租车,他们也提供班车服务让您返回您的汽车。不清楚收费情况。
带上午餐,在普拉特海滩闲逛,这里有温暖的河水出口和清爽的密歇根湖水域。
这也是九月鱼产卵时的绝佳旅行。大多数度假者都走了,河流非常安静,您将看到的野生动物数量令人难以置信。
