Whitefish Dunes State Park is a 867-acre (351 ha)[2] state park of Wisconsin on the eastern shore of the Door Peninsula. This day-use park preserves the most substantial sand dunes on the western shore of Lake Michigan. The remains of eight successive prehistoric Native American villages[2] are on the National Register of Historic Places as Whitefish Dunes-Bay View Site. Cave Point County Park is an enclave inside the state park,[3] allowing visitors free foot access to the state park by the shoreline trail connecting the parks.
