People always ask what SAMA means. It started as kind of a joke. It was a sleeting, snowy day in early December. My friend and I were surfing a swell in Grand Haven. I looked over at him knowing we were supposed to both be at pre-Christmas family functions soon, and said "We are like Self Absorbed Michigan Adventurers." That kind of stuck, and like many of our friends we have a common passion for outdoor sports in Michigan, and we go out in any weather to get our sessions. He replied "Ya, SAMA!"

So it was born, the SAMA logo was fashioned by another like minded surfer friend from Grand Haven. SAMA is for all of you year round Michiganders and vacationers who know, love, and respect all the outdoor activities there are to do in Michigan. No matter the weather you will find us us out enjoying all the benefits of our unique freshwater paradise.

SAMA kayak weekend!!


What a beautiful day on Saturday!! The salmon were shooting around under our kayaks as we gently flowed down the Platte. We dumped out into Lake Michigan with a breathtaking view of Sleeping Bear Dunes. I was hit with the reason SAMA was created. Those of us who know how beautiful it is here, and all the activities there are to do would be hard pressed to leave these lakes, and when we are gone for too long we suffer from a homesickness most people couldn't understand. Long live the Lakes!! Long live SAMA!!
