Review & FAQ:
Stretching for more than 300 yards along the northern shore of Lake Superior, Iona's Beach Scientific and Natural Area is one of the largest and most unique beaches in Minnesota's Lake Country. The shore is covered in beautiful pink stones, but believe it or not, their color isn't their most surprising feature. When the waves come in, the water gently lifts the rocks and drops them back down, creating a magical song that often reminds visitors of tiny bells. The beach is only a short walk from the parking lot, and although there are no amenities here, it's a lovely place for a picnic.
