BEACH 1 WEST EAST
About
Beach 1 West East is a public lake beach in Presque Isle State Park, about 4 miles from Erie, Pennsylvania. It is a simple spot on the lake shore within the park, a place to settle in on the sand rather than a destination with a route to follow. Summer is the warmest stretch. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Erie's airport put July highs around 81°F, with August close behind at about 80°F and lows in the low 60s. June and September are a bit milder, with highs in the mid to upper 70s. Presque Isle Bay is about 3 miles away for fishing. Within about 4 miles, the Greenway Trail, Asbury Park Trail and Wildflower Loop offer mountain biking.
