Put-in-Bay, on South Bass Island in Lake Erie, is home to the nation’s third tallest monument, the world’s longest bar, and an adult spring-break-style party like no other. Visitors are pleasantly surprised by the number of attractions, restaurants, bars, and hotels jammed on this two-by-four-mile island just three miles off the Ohio mainland. Although weekend nightlife here is rampant, you don’t have to be a barfly to have fun. This Victorian era-inspired island packs a wide range of activities suitable for the whole family. During the high season from April through October, vacationers enjoy winery and cave tours, fishing, golfing, water sports, dining, go-karts, antique cars, museums, and historical sights. The island is accessible by plane or boat and has only 400 year round residents, yet over a million visitors come every season. At sunset, the downtown strip of bars on Delaware Avenue transforms into a music thumpin’, bead throwin’, Mardi Gras party atmosphere.
