  • Description:
    Lake Erie beaches can aid the local economies by attracting visitors to nearby communities. The results of a 1998 survey of 1,587 visitors to 15 different Lake Erie beaches suggest that over 50% of trip expenditures of single-day visitors occur in the local economy. Estimates of the local economic impact of these visitors are as high as 5 million dollars per year. Visitors on multiple day trips spend more than three times as much. Sixteen fact sheets present information gathered from beach-goers, one for each of the 15 beaches and one combining the data. Three tables are included in each fact sheet. One table provides demographic, travel, and expenditure information. The second table shows how visitors spent their time during their trip. The final table shows how visitors perceive beach quality, safety, facilities, and surroundings among other things. The three tables divide the results into single-day and multiple-day user categories. The beaches included in this survey are: Camp Perry Beach, Conneaut Township Park, Crane Creek State Park, East Harbor State Park, Edgewater Beach, Euclid Beach, Fairport Harbor Beach, Geneva State Park, Headlands State Park (Mentor), Huntington Beach, Lakeshore Beach (Ashtabula), Lakeview Park (Lorain), Lakeview Park (Port Clinton City Beach), Main Street Beach (Vermilion City Beach), and Walnut Beach.
