Cleveland Tall Ships Festival

 Cleveland Tall Ships Festival returned to Lake Erie for a 4-day maritime celebration.

Serving as the second host port of the TALL SHIPS CHALLENGE® Great Lakes 2022 race series, Cleveland was honored to welcome a fleet of historic tall ships from harbors through the United States, Canada and Spain.

Walk on the new Euclid Beach Pier at Lake Erie in Cleveland

On Wednesday May 22, 2019 the Cleveland Metroparks had a ribbon cutting ceremony to mark the grand opening of the Euclid Beach Pier.

The new 315-foot pier partially extends over Lake Erie, offering views of the downtown Cleveland skyline not experienced from this location for decades.

Dan Hanson took a walk out onto the pier.  Sorry for the wind noise.
