E verything seems to bend towards the water here. Its intrinsic correlation with the quality of life and recreational opportunities weaves a rich history that tells of mariners, fur traders and lumberjacks. G iven the Lake Huron waters at its shores and the Thunder Bay River which runs through it, it's no surprise that many of Alpena's recreational opportunities have to do with enjoying this beautiful, abundant resource. Land a big salmon aboard a charter boat. Dive under the waves in search of shipwrecks.
Adventure abounds here.
