Review:
Rogers Beach is one of Chicago's most popular municipal beaches, named in honor of Irish immigrant Phillip Rogers, the Chicago area's first European settler in the early 19th century. The beach, which is located at the terminus of Rogers Avenue at the Lake Michigan shoreline, is one of 18 street-end municipal beaches overseen by the Chicago Park District since 1959. The 2.43-acre beach is located adjacent to a public park facility and offers public swimming between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with lifeguards staffed on duty during certain times in the summer. Visitors should note that distance swimming is not offered at the beach, though nearby Leone Beach is a popular distance swimming spot. Tennis courts are offered at the nearby park, with biking and walking trails available nearby.
