chicago lakefront


Chicago has some of the nicest beaches of any major metropolitan area. It hosts 26 miles of total miles of fun and sun during the Summer season nested under the backdrop of a beautiful skyline. Lake Michigan offers a nice respite against a large bustling city, being a land locked lake it remains pretty calm most of the year, though since it is so large it does experience tidal patterns, resulting in large waves during and after large storms. With 24 beaches total intermixed with eateries, harbors, volley ball and tennis courts, a golf course, and places to wet your whistle there is a location for everyone. This year they started paddle boarding and boating lessons, the park district also offers classes in rowing and canoeing. If you visit Chicago this year, make a point to visit the lake to relax.
