NATIONAL LAKESHORES

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore , near Munising, Michigan , on Lake Superior. Pictured Rocks is the largest National Lakeshore by area. Authorized in 1966 , the park was the first National Lakeshore in the United States.

Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore , in northwest Indiana, near Michigan City , on Lake Michigan. Authorized in 1966, soon after Pictured Rocks. By most estimates, this park is the most popular National Lakeshore, probably due to its close proximity to Chicago and other large Midwestern cities.

Apostle Islands National Lakeshore , in northern Wisconsin on Lake Superior. Authorized in September 1970 .

Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore , in Leelanau County Michigan, on Lake Michigan. Authorized in October 1970 .
