This beach provides wonderful views of Lake Michigan, featuring pristine sand and a variety of water activities to participate in. Many people can be seen body surfing and enjoying the sun. It's important to note that swimming is prohibited during certain times, so be sure to check availability before planning your visit.

Although the weather wasn't right for it, it was clearly a place for open water swimming 😉🏊

• One of the most popular beaches in Evanston

• Crystal clear water, ideal for swimming

• Spacious and clean beach, often crowded

• Family-friendly, with shallow water suitable for children

• Perfect for building sandcastles, picnics, and relaxing by the lake

A place where open-water swimmers also come in the morning. Tomorrow I'll take a dip at dawn too 😉😍
