New Buffalo Beach
Public beach
👍👍 This place is a gem! It was a beautiful late-summer getaway for us last August. We could even swim comfortably- just make sure your torso is covered so the water doesn't give you chills! Cool rocks, elegant dunes, and gorgeous water on a clear day. And NO FEAR OF SHARKS!!

Beach is gated. There's plenty of restaurants within walking distance, and alot of cute little shops. Highly recomme...

Kathy Osterman Beach House at Hollywood Beach
Beach pavillion
👍👍 Awesome beach! You forget that you're in Chicago. It's not a nude beach (officially), but it very definitely has a Haulover Beach feel to it. The north end of the beach tends to be the family end, while the south end is more fun, open-minded, and LGBT.

👍👍 Found this park while driving around the area and decided to explore it. Being October the bathrooms were closed for the season and most of the piers were on the shore. There are still several places to hang out and watch the wildlife and the lakes. Nice location to come in the summer with the fa...
