Probably one of the nicest beaches in Ohio. Great place to watch the sunset, which by the way is the park’s closing time. Word of caution for swimmers, there is an intermittent under tow, Do not swim alone! Do your homework ahead of time on how to be safer in the water.

A beautiful state park to visit. I decided to go here to see the Great Lakes for the first time ever! More specifically Lake Erie. It was quite cool, felt like I was looking at the ocean! This state park is stunning all around.

An amazingly beautiful Beach with nature preserve dunes and plenty of trails to hike. You can go for stunning views of both sunrise and sunsets. Find serenity and tranquilly at the headlands. A true "happy place"

Any State Park that has a nice little trail to an iconic lighthouse on a breakwater is 5 star worthy in my book. But Headlands also has the northern terminus for the Buckeye Trail on it's grounds as well as a nice sandy beach and sand dunes to enjoy for any Great Lake lover.

Nice park. Do yourself a favor & download the park map for easy parking, restroom, trail reference while at the park & walking the trails. The nuke plant in pics is the Perry Nuclear plant.
