Horseshoe Bay is a kitesurf spot located on Lake Huron, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, east of the Straits of Mackinac. This horseshoe-shaped bay offers partial protection depending on wind direction, with a semi-sheltered water body. Bois Blanc Island is visible offshore. The area is sparsely developed and offers a peaceful natural setting with crystal-clear waters. Good spot for intermediate riders.
