The Grand Haven Breakwater lighthouse is located in the harbor of Grand Haven, Michigan.

Grand Haven Lighthouses are two different lighthouses on the south pier of the channel where Grand River comes into Lake Michigan. A lighthouse was first established there in 1839.[1] Both lighthouses were put up for sale in 2009 under the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act.[2]
