Nice beach area with ample parking. Unfortunately there was some type of algae bloom so I didn't get my feet wet. Beautiful views from the top of the rocks.

We were visiting from TN and this place is so beautiful

Nice beach. Next time we visit, I'll bring a garbage bag to pick up litter. There is a well built mobility ramp for beach access.

Racine has turned what was once just an old mucky forgotten Lake Michigan beach front into a wonderful established wetland. This is on the inside of the South breakwater so it's protected from the lake. They added a boardwalk through the area with benches for viewing and informative plaques along the way. It's a very lovely place to walk through as well just sit on one of the benches and take it all in. Racine also erected a large pavilion/ gazebo above the wetland area in Myers Park. There is a Butterfly Garden planted next to it with information on Monarch Butterflies posted on a plaque there. Myers Park is a lovely little park with trees planted in memory of loved ones along with pretty evergreens overlooking the wetland trail and Lake Michigan's calmer breakwater. There are a couple of paths through the park, one leading from the gazebo to the parking area. Another leads from the parking lot to the stairs leading down to the wetland boardwalk. For people who don't know, this is the small park just South of Gateway, down the hill on Pershing Blvd.

Gotta say I'm impressed by the beauty of this location. You can see right through the water it's so clear. It's a lot warmer than the South Shore Beach and has an isolated feel to it. I'm not familiar with the history of this space but I can tell it was once a project. The steps to get down aren't the safest or it would get 5 stars. If a group got together to clean up the degree and fix the steps, I really believe this spot would be booming with life! Also great place to catch minnows for fishing.

Is there anything better than driving to the lake for a sunrise? I mean...living on it would be great!

Quiet, the beach part needs some TLC, but all was well! Nice scenery. Good vibes...

I'm from Michigan and traveled to Wisconsin to look at a few job sites and noticed I was near Lake Michigan, so I took a trip near the shore and yupp it looks the same from the Michigan side...lol Still beautiful whichever side your on...

Peacefull place to hang out

Very nice people. Beach and water are fairly clean. Very nice place to bring your dog as it's off leash, shallow and inside break water for dogs of all sizes to enjoy

Great place to walk down by Lake Michigan!

A walk in the park.

People need to stop littering all the crapthat washes up on shore really takes away from the beauty the area could be.

Never knew this was back here.thanks Peyti

Racine is working to restore the wetlands in this area, and so far they're doing a good job!

Came here with my fiance and friends for a picnic, and enjoyed how quiet it was. The sound of the waves as a backdrop was amazing. When the sun went down we walked the wetland area and caught a bunch of toads and frogs. SUPER FUN TIME!!!!

The beach is beautiful, but it is full of trash laying around. I'm sure that if there was a clean up a few times a year, it would look better.

Love coming down here eben though it always feels cold its peaceful

Beautiful chil spot

R&R

Nice small park with great views of the lake.

Bird Watching

Very peaceful area to just listen and reflect. Sad to see winter has to come.

Great little park, marshland boardwalk area, and the beach front is prime for sea glass hunting. It also contains a a sizable gazebo you could host a small family get together in.

Good place to walk and enjoy a beautiful day. Not super clean but there is plenty of parking and there is some events during the summer near by like live music so thats great go to place for summer

This in my opinion is a MUCH better swimming beach for families as it is very shallow a long way out so there is plenty of room to spread out and even very young children can go in further. Bring your flotation device and walk or swim out to meet the boats that are anchored up. Many of them can be reached in only waist deep (for adults) water. It's also very dog friendly and calm water.

Great little lakefront park and beach. Popular in summer with anchored boats out from shore. Depending on the conditions, sometimes the water can be turned up with a bit of organic debris, but overall a nice beach.

What a cute little park! It's like a miniature beach. Decent sand and nicely inclined. Super safe for kids.

Beautiful! A nice quiet place to get away and enjoy nature.

It's private, and there is quite a long distance of shallows with nice sandy bottom, but it is filthy and smells horrible!!! I took my kids yesterday, and there were red signs up saying do not swim. So before we went any further, I looked why it was closed. Omg!!! Closed for fecal bacteria in the water. The health department needs to do better, our water is getting out of hand!

Really nice walking trail down to the beach

Beautiful!

Excellent rejuvenate lake front. With prairie land and wet land. Love it!

Very nice down here now!

This space had vastly improved in recent years. With the new walkway, gazebo, benches, and sand prairie plants, it really feels like a place worth visiting. Had a picnic with the family and walked along the planks. Loved it!

Loooove it

Beautiful place

Not much to do, but the lake is nice

A stunning area. Great for fishing, seeing the lake, or sitting to clear your head.

Looks good to me thank you.

Needs a little TLC, however, one of my sons favorite places to be. Rest easy Cody Baer❤️

Tranquility

Beautiful scenery and view of lake Michigan. Walking paths, beach and grass area that is great for activities. Tables and benches.

Quiet, peaceful, not crowded. Maybe it's too small for a crowd, but it's perfect for a little me time.

A nice little escape where not too many people go where you can relax. Perfect for a romantic date where you can picnic or just to observe nature and dig your feet in the sand in the parks small beach area.

Love taking the boat here.

Perfect spot to go if you wanna just relax and unwind. Whether you drive or take your bike or walk, you'll be glad you did. Well worth the visit.

Really needs some cleanup and repairs.

Love it

Very beautiful

Love nature

Ok

Very nice park, but people leave too much trash everywhere.
