Average Chicago Summer highs are 80° - 84° F, average lows are 61° - 65° F. Beach attendance is highly influenced by weather and day of week.  

Beach Attendance

The following observations are to help you estimate beach attendance: 

  • Clear skies – no cloud cover – is the biggest indicator in determining attendance. Most visitors are simply looking to get a tan.
  • The weekends, especially Sunday, are prone to larger crowds.
  • Beach attendance peaks between 2:30 and 3:30.
  • A high attendance day: Saturday or Sunday, mostly Sunny, 75 F° – 95 F°, moderate or no wind. North Ave Beach and Oak Street Beach will be crowded – come early!
