Illinois has lakes, rivers, ponds, and beaches. I had some idea that Illinois had beaches. I've been to Chicago I've seen Lake Shore Drive, but that was really the only famous one I know, that's until I did a little research and found at least five beaches that are pretty popular in the state.

Now I am sure we all knew that there were beaches in Chicago and along the Northern part of Illinois, but now you know that there are some amazing ones all over the state to enjoy.
