Fullerton Beach /Lincoln Park

Beautiful beach. Amazing videos of the Magnificent Mile and the northern communities. Not as crowded as Oak Street Beach but views were even better. Would highly recommend walking out to here on the Lakefront Trail from the City.

What a breathtaking spot - its really hrad to share my super great experience here. Very amazing, fabulous, and a place that you MUST visit. Whether you are running, biking or walking along the trail, you will definitely stop here to relax and enjoy the beautiful view.

Best scenic Chicago skyline view!

Awesome place! Me and my girlfriend love visiting here and just enjoying the view of downtown. It’s a bit far from navy pier but can also be excellent to enjoy the 4th of July fireworks.

It is clean and nice beach

Great if your definition of beach is relatively malleable

Favorite place to take visitors and enjoy a picnic.

beautiful place recommended to visit when visiting chicago

If you're a fan of going to the beach, but not a fan of sand getting literally everywhere then this is the beach for you. Fullerton Beach is the perfect spot to set up a picnic and lounge for a few hours with some buddies. The beach consists of grass and cement, so you don't have the same vibe as North Ave beach next-door at all. Fullerton Beach is way more chill. There are a lot of bicyclist so make sure you stay clear out of their way. If you're walking your dog or coming with children, make sure they stay clear of the bike paths as not to cause any accidents. The place is easier to access with public transportation, than it is to deal with finding reasonably priced parking. I would definitely take the bus over instead because it's cheaper. One of my favorite things about this area is going in the evening time and watching the sunset with a whole bunch of strangers and appreciating it all. It's definitely something you should do if you haven't.

This is a great beach if you're visiting Chicago! Chair rentals are about $15/ day which isn't too bad if you're just with your kids since they'll never use them. Water was pretty clean and there's nearby stands for drinks, snacks.
