A 7-mile peninsula juts out into Lake Erie from the city of Erie, forming a magnificent natural harbor called Presque Isle Bay. Today, two active lighthouses protect the ships plying Lake Erie. The North Pierhead Lighthouse is one of them. When visitors come to Presque Isle State Park, they have favorite places they usually visit. Beach 6, Waterworks, Kite Beach, Presque Isle Lighthouse and Beach 11 are a few. Many visitors do not even know about the park s hidden unique jewels tucked away on the U.S. Coast Guard Station and the North Pier road. From the beginning of travel on the Great Lakes, storms have ravaged boaters and commerce on the lakes, and taken lives and vessels. The lake is known for its unpredictable gales, blizzards, fog banks and thunderstorms that can overwhelm the lake without warning. Part of the problem is that Lake Erie is on a perfect west-to-east axis, and the prevailing winds share that axis.
