Sunset at Porter Beach - Indiana Dunes National Park


To close out our first day at Indiana Dunes National Park, we watched the sunset over Gary, Indiana from Porter Beach in October 2019. Free off-road paved parking is available for 30 vehicles including four accessible spots just east of Wabash Avenue, Porter, Indiana. A summer-only restroom facility is located at the north end of the parking lot.

Entry to Indiana Dunes National Park is free. However, an expanded amenity fee of $6 daily per vehicle ($30 for busses and RVs) is collected at West Beach from the Friday of Memorial Day weekend through the Monday of Labor Day weekend from 8:00 am to as late as 7:00 pm Central Time. This fee is used to provide the bathhouse and lifeguard service.
