Accretion Beach, Sand beach in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan, United States.

The beach features a natural sand shoreline along Lake Saint Clair, with gentle slopes and shallow water patterns near the coast.

The formation of this accretion beach results from sediment accumulation processes that have shaped the Lake Saint Clair shoreline since the last glacial period.

Local residents gather at the beach during summer months for swimming, sunbathing, and outdoor recreational activities following community traditions.

The beach maintains regular hours from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM daily, with designated parking areas and walking paths leading to the waterfront.

Natural sediment cycles create variations in beach width throughout the year, as sand deposits shift between underwater and surface areas.
