Luna Pier is a small city in Monroe County of the U.S. state of Michigan. It is located 6 miles (9.7 km) from the Ohio border along the coast of Lake Erie. Previously known as Lakewood, it was established in the early 1900s and incorporated as a city in 1963. It functioned primarily as a resort for people living in the greater Toledo, Ohio and Metro Detroit area. The population was 1,436 at the 2010 census.

Its most prominent feature is a large crescent-shaped pier made of concrete, approximately 800 ft (240 m) long and reaching around 200 feet (61 m) out into Lake Erie. The pier is flanked by sandy beaches and man-made rock and concrete embankments. On most days, the Davis-Besse nuclear power plant in Port Clinton can be seen from the pier. Also visible, are the Toledo Harbor Light and shipping channel.

Luna Pier, now established with mainly year round residents, attracts tourists interested in fishing, the public beach, bike trails, public boat ramp, marinas, ball fields, lake front scenery and the small-town atmosphere. The city is served by Mason Consolidated Schools.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1.68 square miles (4.35 km²), of which 1.50 square miles (3.88 km²) is land and 0.18 square miles (0.47 km²) is water.

The city of Luna Pier is served by Interstate 75, with connections north to Detroit and Flint (via Interstate 275), and connections south to Toledo, Ohio.

Two roads go in and out of Luna Pier, one being Luna Pier Road, which runs west to US Route 23, US Route 24, and US Route 223. The other is Gaynier Road, which leads northwest out of town.
