This week, we take a look back at Cedar Point’s rich history. Located on the south shore of Lake Erie in Sandusky, Ohio, Cedar Point has long been a beloved destination for visitors. Since 1870, it has welcomed guests as a public bathing beach and lakeside resort, offering a unique blend of relaxation and recreation.

Lake Erie, which borders Cedar Point, is the fourth-largest of the five Great Lakes by surface area and the smallest by water volume. Its waters have played a vital role in shaping the region’s history and continue to be a central part of Cedar Point’s identity and appeal.
