On this awesome episode of UTR, we make waves on our very own Thumb Coast. We’ll cruise a classic ship, live it up and chow down by the river, paddle through peaceful backwaters, and dine on fried chicken like it’s 1936. Get ready to explore the cool people, places, and things that make Michigan’s Thumb Coast the absolute most !

Discover Michigan's Thumbcoast
Spend crisp autumn days exploring the fall colors along the scenic M-29 and M-25 routes, where brilliant foliage contrasts beautifully with the sparkling blue waters of Lake Huron and the St. Clair River. Experience the fall bird migration, as we are located on two major migratory paths, making it an excellent spot for birdwatching. Lace up your boots for a hike through colorful nature preserves, and take in the seasonal charm of local boutiques and locally loved eateries, ideal for a friends’ day out or a family day. As the holidays approach, cozy dining options and festive events enhance the warm spirit of Michigan’s Thumbcoast in the fall.
Nine waterfront resort communities - Port Austin, Harbor Beach, Port Sanilac, Lexington, Port Huron, Marysville, St. Clair, Marine City, and Clay / Algonac welcome you to Michigan's 140-mile Thumbcoast.
