Families can take advantage of easy access to the lakefront via public parks and beaches in Evanston.

From picnics at Centennial Park to swims at one of Evanston’s six beaches to walks along the shoreline with your four-legged friends, there are plenty of family activities to be had on the picturesque shores of Lake Michigan.

The lakefront is adored by Northwestern students and Evanston residents alike for its calming effect. Many find it more enjoyable to study at the Lakefill than in the library on a sunny day.

Similarly, families can take advantage of easy access to the lakefront in Evanston by going for a run with a view of the water, enjoying a sunrise, going to the beach to swim, playing in the sand or hosting a get-together with friends and family.

Arguably the best natural beauty in Evanston, the lakefront is the perfect place to enjoy the weekend with family.
