Michigan is the only state that borders on four of the five Great Lakes. Michigan consists of two peninsulas; these are divided by Lake Michigan, and linked by one of the world’s longest suspension bridges across the Straits of Mackinac. Lakes Superior, Huron and Erie also form the State’s shorelines. In addition to being surrounded by the small "seas" of the Great Lakes, Michigan has 11,000 inland lakes, providing perfect conditions for recreational activities such as boating, fishing, swimming or simply taking in the shoreline scenery.

The Upper Peninsula is a great location to visit as forests, white beaches, trout streams and winter ski resorts are dotted across the landscape. The Lower Peninsula is mainly agricultural and industrial, it contains inland lakes, meadows and sandy beaches, as well as the ‘Motor City’ of Detroit, Michigan’s largest city. It is the home of the Motown sound, Greek town one of the city's most exciting nightlife, restaurant and entertainment districts and Comerica Park, home of the Detroit Tigers.
Alternative vacationing options in Michigan include the famous resort of Mackinaw City, Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor.
