Tunnel Park, Holland Michigan
Tunnel Beach park is one of my most photographed beaches. Its accessibility and variety of backdrops makes it one of my most recommended locations for clients. It’s often tied up with other Holland locations such as downtown, Window on the Waterfront park and the state park.
