Straits State Park: Straits State Park is a state park in the U.S. state of Michigan located in St. Ignace, Mackinac County, on the northern shore of the Straits of Mackinac.  The Father Marquette National Memorial and park is also located within the state park boundaries.

Ferries in Michigan: Due to its unique geography, being made of two peninsulas surrounded by the Great Lakes, Michigan has depended on many ferries for connections to transport people, vehicles and trade.  The most famous modern ferries are those which carry people and goods across the Straits of Mackinac to the car-free Mackinac Island but before the Mackinac Bridge was built, large numbers of ferries carried people and cars between the two peninsulas.  Other ferries continue to provide transportation to small islands and across the Detroit River to Canada.  Ferries once provided transport to island parks for city dwellers.  The state's only national park, Isle Royale cannot be reached by road and is normally accessed by ferry.  The largest ferries in Michigan are the car ferries which cross Lake Michigan to Wisconsin.  One of these, the SS "Badger" is one of the last remaining coal steamers on the Great Lakes and serves as a section of US Highway 10 (US 10).  The "Badger" is also the largest ferry in Michigan, capable of carrying 600 passengers and 180 autos.

Mackinac Bridge: The Mackinac Bridge ( ) is a suspension bridge spanning the Straits of Mackinac to connect the Upper and Lower Peninsulas of the U.S. state of Michigan.  Opened in 1957, the 26372 ft bridge (familiarly known as "Big Mac" and "Mighty Mac") is the world's 19th-longest main span and the longest suspension bridge between anchorages in the Western Hemisphere.  The Mackinac Bridge is part of Interstate 75 and the Lakes Michigan and Huron components of the Great Lakes Circle Tours across the straits; it is also a segment of the U.S. North Country National Scenic Trail.  The bridge connects the city of St. Ignace on the north end with the village of Mackinaw City on the south.

Mackinaw City is at the northern tip (headland) of the Michigan's Lower Peninsula along the southern shore of the Straits of Mackinac.  Across the straits lies the state's Upper Peninsula.  These two land masses are physically connected by the Mackinac Bridge, which runs from Mackinaw City north to St. Ignace.  Mackinaw City is also the primary base for ferry service to Mackinac Island, located to the northeast in the straits.

Straits of Mackinac: The Straits of Mackinac ( ) is a series of narrow waterways in the U.S. state of Michigan, between Michigan's Lower and Upper Peninsulas.  The main strait flows under the Mackinac Bridge and connects two of the Great Lakes, Lake Michigan and Lake Huron.  The main strait is 5 mi wide and 20 fathom deep.  Hydrologically, the two connected lakes can be considered one, which is called Lake Michigan–Huron.  Historically, the region around the Straits was known by the native Odawa people as Michilimackinac.  The Straits of Mackinac is "whipsawed by currents unlike anywhere else in the Great Lakes."
