Considered by some (per Wikipedia) as Chicago's finest beach, the North Avenue Beach (situated on Lake Michigan on the east side of Lake Shore Drive from the end of North Avenue) is replete with amenities and has one of the finest views of Chicago.
Facilities at the beach includes a newly-renovated beach house—with concessions, vending machines, outdoor showers, restrooms, and rental offices—as well as extensive lifeguard stations, volleyball courts, and outdoor showers. But the best amenity is perhaps the amazing vista of the northern Chicago skyline.
