Destination Sandusky

Ohio Bike Week is rocking out.

One of Sandusky’s most beloved waterfront spots has begun a new chapter. ☀️ Pipe Creek Wharf is officially open TODAY under new ownership. Joe & Olivia - the team behind SolStay - have brought fresh vision to one of the best-situated spots on Sandusky’s Back Bay. 🌊

We’re talking a dockside bar and grill, an outdoor bar, Adirondack chairs with views, live music, new menu, and a patio that was made for a perfect Sandusky evening. Arrive by boat, bike, or car - just get there! 🛶🌮

Today we celebrate the 208th anniversary of the founding of Sandusky!

On June 5th, 1818, the plat of the city was officially recorded at the Huron County Courthouse (Sandusky was originally part of Huron County). The plat, laid out by Hector Kilbourne, was submitted by Zalmon Wildman, George Hoadley, and Isaac Mills, who owned the land Sandusky was laid out on.

Sandusky was incorporated as a village 6 years later in 1824, and we officially became a city by an act of the Ohio General Assembly on March 6, 1845.

Ohio Bike Week's downtown block party is rocking day 2, with headliner Buckcherry taking the Main Stage tonight. 🎸

1️⃣ week from today, summer officially starts in Sandusky. 🎶 🌅

Party at the Pier returns Thursday, June 11th at Jackson Street Pier! There’s nothing quite like it… Listening to live music from bands you love, a breeze coming off Sandusky Bay, the smell of something incredible coming from the food trucks, a cold drink in your hand, and the whole community around you singing every word. It’s one of those evenings where you look around and think — this is summer. ☀️ 🥰

This series has become one of the most beloved traditions in our community, and it doesn’t happen without partners who believe in what Sandusky is building. Firelands Auto Group has been with the series since the early days — Five years of serving as the presenting sponsor and growing this thing together. We don’t take that for granted, and we’re so grateful to have them back this year, continuing that legacy. 🧡👏🏽

📅 Season kicks off June 11th at 7PM
📍 Jackson Street Pier

There are sunsets… and then there are Sandusky sunsets. 🌅

The kind that make you feel awe. The kind that make strangers turn to each other and say, “did you see that?” The kind that remind you exactly why this city sits where it does - on the edge of one of the greatest lakes in the world. 🌊

Year 2️⃣ of the Sandusky Sunset Celebration starts Wednesday, June 10th at Jackson Street Pier. First sunset is 9:04 PM. ☀️

OH Taco is our Presenting Sponsor this season - grab a drink or a snack ahead of the show and give them a big thank you for helping make this community event possible. 💛
