About

Washington Street Park is a public lake beach in Michigan, about half a mile from the town of Lakeport. It's a simple stop for a day at the water, close enough to town to fit easily into a short outing. Summer is the warmest stretch for a beach visit. Typical averages from the nearby Port Huron weather station put July highs around 81°F with lows near 65°F, and August is nearly the same at about 80°F. For more time outdoors, The Island Loop Route National Water Trail is about 8 miles away and offers canoeing. The Mountain Bike Trail and the Waterfront Trail are both within about 9 miles.
