57th Street Beach is a little less busy than the other beaches, making it a great spot for picnicking or playing in the sand. Hidden in the Hyde Park neighborhood, the beach also offers an area for deep swimming and is the perfect stop after exploring the Museum of Science and Industry across the street. End the day with a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants on 57th Street.  Only a 15-20 minute drive for those staying in our fully furnished apartments in the West Loop!
