Who needs the Ocean? Lake Michigan beaches are the BEST!

There is so much to do in the city: eat, shop, drink, see a show, visit a museum, or just walk around! What is so great about Chicago is not only the endless opportunities for fun and adventure, but the easy access we have to nature: sand, waves, swimming, tanning, and lounging around! The beaches are a huge part of this beautiful city and there is plenty of beach access. Lake Michigan is one of the most beautiful lakes in the country, so take advantage of the long coastline, find a spot, and give yourself some R & R!
