Pennsylvania’s only “seashore,” Presque Isle is our favorite place to visit in Erie. The park offers a beautiful coastline of beaches and many recreational activities, including swimming, boating, fishing, hiking and bicycling miles of trails. ****Water Taxi from the Erie Bayfront to Presque Isle is available from Dobbins Landing - An awesome way to get on water****
For the best meal in town, we recommend Peppino’s, a beloved family-run Italian gem thats a 20 min drive from the Erie Bayfront hotels. Our favorite restaurant in Erie!!
