Dyckman Park in downtown South Haven hosts a farmer’s market throughout summer filled with local produce, handmade crafts, and street food from vendors in the South Haven and West Michigan area. Check it out Wednesdays 8am-2pm until September 1st and Saturdays 8am-2pm until mid-October.
Address:
539 Huron St. South Haven, MI 49090

Large public parking lot surrounding farmer’s market, street parking, or additional public parking lots a 1-3 minute walk away.
North & South Beach
Kick back in the sand at one of South Haven’s gorgeous public beaches. Both beaches have public restrooms, showers, and concessions. North Beach also has volleyball posts set up on the north end of the beach. You can rent a net from the concessions, bring your own, or join in on a game.
Be sure to stay up to date on the water conditions and safety precautions here. The City of South Haven recently enacted fines for entering the water during red flag conditions so it is important to stay alert both for your safety and your wallet. The flags are also displayed across North and South Beach.
Parking:
Paid parking on North and South Beach and free street parking a short walk from either beach and in downtown.
Hours:
Both North and South Beach close at 11pm and the piers are open 24/7, water conditions permitting.
Disc Golf
SHARA Disc Golf Park is a brand-new course located about 5 minutes south of downtown South Haven. Compete with your friends on 18 holes and be careful not to lose your discs in the woods.

Hiking & Biking Trails
South Haven boasts two major trails for both hiking and biking: the Kal-Haven Trail and the Van-Buren State Park Trail.
The Kal-Haven Trail is a 34-mile, all-seasons trail extending from Kalamazoo, all the way to the coast of Lake Michigan right here in South Haven. This trail is loved by bike-packers and hikers alike and can serve as a fun detour off of the North Country Trail. You can view the map here.
The Van Buren State Park Trail is a 14 mile long paved trail that runs along a former railroad from South Haven to Hartford, MI. This trail starts in downtown South Haven and passes through Van Buren State Park, so for a shorter trip, we recommend biking or rollerblading to the state park and back. You can view the map here.
