3. Belle Isle

Detroit is a busy, industrial city, so visitors might not expect to find much peace and quiet here. Head out to Belle Isle, however, and that is exactly what you will find.

The island is located between Detroit and Windsor, Canada, in the middle of the Detroit River. The island used to house a zoo and an aquarium, and the aquarium reopened in 2012 after a period of being closed due to budget cuts. The island is an ideal spot for a peaceful walk while taking in the views from the coastline either side of the river. There is even a beach where the whole family can relax and have some fun.
