What are the best beaches in Chicago?

Chicago Beaches Off-season?

  • I'm from out of town, but I was going to visit a friend who lives near Chicago. I was looking at info for Chicago beaches and got confused. Am I allowed to use the beaches during the "off-season"? And if so, what all is allowed during this time?

  • Answer:

    I don't think the beaches ever close during daytime...maybe if there is a seiche predicted. Swimming is not outlawed but the water is very cold...39F and there are no life guards. below is the city's site for beaches. It has not been updated yet but info is the same: http://www.chicagoparkdistrict.com/resources/beaches/

Try to visit the Oak Street Beach, 000 N. Lake Shore Drive at Oak Street , for assurance ride the CTA Bus #151 Sheridan Northbound, expect the rollerblading minute, volleyball, relaxing and soaking in some rays or wanting to check out tiny swimwear. The Oak Street Beach is steps away from the Magnificent Mile and a people-watching extravaganza right in the middle of a bustling Chicago, just try this one hope I can really help.

You can visit the beaches every day. The parks and beaches are open from 6 am to 11 pm. When they say a beach is closed they mean two things. sometimes because of cow dung pollution from Wisconsin and Northern Illinois they close the beaches for health reasons. This usually only happens in the late summer when the water is warm. They other reason they are called closed is that they have no life guards on duty Up until the end of June the water is usually to cold to go into any way. Life guards start at some popular beaches June 1. By the end of June all beaches have life guards. You can use the beaches and go in the water even if there are no life guards. Just remember to leave the parks by 11 pm.

you are not allowed to go int he water during off season but you are allowed to be on the beach from bout 4am to 11 pm. Half the time they done't bother you if you are out there earlier or later than those time, so long as there's no funny business going on.
