2 Evanston Beaches Closed Today
With high bacteria levels at certain locations, only one option remains for free beach access on Monday.

Two Evanston beaches are closed today due to high bacteria, and one of them was one of two offering free access.
According to a city memo, both Clark Street Beach and South Boulevard Beach are closed Monday to swimming due to bacteria. Clark Street and Dempster/Greenwood Street beaches were planned as “free beach day” locations both today and next Monday, August 31.
Dempster/Greenwood Street beach remains open, as does Lighthouse Beach, Lee Street Beach, and both the sand and water areas of the Dog Beach.
