This is the time to do something you love. The eastern shores of Michigan stretch out before you, poised and ready for you to delve in.

Whatever your passion, the Blue Water region invites you to engage and enjoy!

The City of Port Huron, stretching for seven miles along the shore of the St. Clair River and the base of Lake Huron, is an international border crossing marked by the spectacular Blue Water Bridge.
