Whether enjoying a sunset over the marina or exploring the historic neighborhoods that line its tree-shaded streets, residents find an easygoing rhythm here that celebrates both water and community. With its small-town feel and big-lake energy, St. Clair Shores remains one of the region’s most beloved waterfront destinations.
