For those seeking a slightly more relaxed experience with similar pleasant weather, September is a great alternative. The temperatures remain very agreeable, often hovering around 20°C, which is still lovely for beach walks and enjoying the lakeside views without the full summer rush.

South Beach is the most popular beach, located just a short walk over the Black River bridge from the main downtown area. It's known for its iconic red lighthouse, the South Haven Pier, and a wide sandy expanse superb for sunbathing. You'll find amenities like restrooms, a concession stand, and a playground, making it very convenient for families.

Families with children will find staying near South Beach ideal. The shallow waters close to shore are great for little ones, and the playground provides extra entertainment. Plus, the proximity to downtown means you're never far from ice cream shops or casual eateries after a day of building sandcastles.

North Beach, across the Black River and accessed via the drawbridge, offers a slightly different experience. It's generally less crowded than South Beach and provides excellent views of the harbour entrance and the lake. It's a great spot for longer walks along the shoreline and for watching the boats come and go.

Couples looking for a more relaxed beach experience might prefer staying closer to North Beach. It offers a more tranquil setting for enjoying the sunset or simply unwinding by the water.
