surf's up
Midwest Living
|Summer 2023
Learn to catch a wave on the Great Lakes close to home and jellyfish sting-free.
WAVES CRASH against the shore as distant surfers bob beneath the tangerine sun, strategizing the morning's sets. Maui? Nope. This scene's straight out of Cleveland, one of several surf communities along the Midwest's Third Coast. Under the right conditions, swells here can reach 5 to 10 feet, yet they draw a fraction of the East and West Coast crowds.
