Discover St. Clair

Stroll the picturesque boardwalk along the St. Clair River and soak in the peacefulness of the blue water. From here, you can watch freighters passing by, and sit among the beautiful gardens meticulously maintained by their garden club.

Turtle Beach is a natural habitat viewable by land or water. Rent a kayak from the St. Clair Boat Harbor and paddle the slow-moving Pine River to Turtle Beach.

St. Clair has a long freshwater boardwalk, offering expansive views of ships. Take a self-guided Freighter Walk Tour using the marked plaques on the walkway near the statue in Palmer Park.
