So cast off traffic jams. Leave the bottlenecks of your daily journeys behind. Permission granted to come aboard the S.S. Badger and come to Ludington, where the smiles are genuine, the setting is perfect and the journey is Pure Michigan.

	Ludington Thrill to the excitement of a fast paced dune ride, or rent a jeep and set you own pace as you explore the dunes. Charter a boat or bring your own and set your sights on the big catch or a lazy afternoon on Lake Michigan--Ludington is the #1 fishing port in Michigan for salmon. Paddle or row your cares away on the Pere Marquette River, or spend the day hiking or biking along scenic trails and pathways. Climb the 130 stairs to the top of Big Sable Point Lighthouse for a panoramic view like no other.
