Located along the Sandusky Bay shoreline, Sandusky has twice been named the Best Coastal Small Town in America. This growing destination is home to world class amusement park, Cedar Point, and is known as Ohio’s Water Park Capital due to the popularity of year-round indoor water park resorts.
In season, ferries and island-hopping cruises depart from downtown daily, including an international ferry terminal offering daily trips to Canada’s Pelee island. Sandusky surprises with its beautiful parks, downtown architecture, and wealth of history, including its role in the Underground Railroad. Downtown Sandusky offers delicious dining options, quaint shops, art galleries, numerous attractions, and the historic Sandusky State Theatre. It's a walkable city with amenities you typically find only in a larger community place, plus the affordability and friendliness of a smaller one.
