It is a small beach right next to Museum Campus and next door to the Plantearium. Great during the summer months. They have a cute little Taco Place on-site. Very good for those 7 am quiet swims which I have done.

One of our favorite beaches in Chicago! It also has the best view of the Chicago skyline.
