Chicago's skyline is beautiful, but Lake Michigan is a world of it’s own. Come by the shores of the city to enjoy some fun outside of the hustle and bustle. For a relaxing time in the sand or on a boat, there is plenty to do on the water! 

1. Take a Booze Cruise
There's no better way than spending a Chicago summer day on a boat, one even better there's booze involved. The views and ambiance are hard to beat aboard these one of a kind Booze Cruises. Chicago 20 Something puts on an amazing Booze Cruise all throughout the summer. Grab your tickets fast before they sell out and increase in price! 

2. Beer Fest on the Beach
You can enjoy the water without actually going in it. Put on your favorite summer outfit and head to the beach for a festival of all things beer. Of course you can always enjoy the beach with a beer, but the Beer Fest is the most appropriate way to do it. Enjoy a relaxing time with friends along the shore at a Beer Fest on the Beach. 

3. Urban Kayaks on the Chicago River 
If you're looking to get sporty and enjoy the scenery of the city from the waves of the river, the Kayak rentals on the river walk are the place to go. Whether you're a beginner looking for a tour of the city while being guided through the water or an adventure seeker renting the kayaks for an experience on your own path there is something here for you. 

4. Chicago Cycle Boat
If you like the water, booze, and “driving” the boat on your own try out the Chicago Cycle boats. You may have seen the cycle trolleys on the streets, boozed up party-goers cycling down the street blasting their music, well I can do you one better- on the water. Chicago Cycle Boats is the best way to tour and cruise through the river, drink in hand and a mini workout. 

5. North Avenue Beach
Chicago may be a concrete jungle, but it does have a beautiful shore and beaches too! One of my favorites is North Ave Beach, with a perfect view of the Chicago skyline. You can enjoy the waves and sand with the best backdrop for pictures. This beach is the most relaxing way to take a break from the taxi cabs and crowded sidewalks. 

Take a trip down to the lake front or right in the heart of the city on the river for which option you choose there is something for you. To booze or not to booze there is a water filled activity for you to experience. Summer may be hot, but it is the time to relax, so enjoy the breeze of the lake, grab a drink or take an adventure and embrace all the beauty and fun Chicago has to offer.

Need to get out of your house after staying in for so long? I’ve got the perfect event for you to get outside and enjoy nature while hanging out with your friends at the same time! The Labor Day Friday cruise is an adult only boat cruise aboard our 140-foot luxury yacht on Lake Michigan! Feel sun on your skin from the rooftop of the boat while at the same time feeling the breeze of lake Michigan and the spritz on your face from breaking waves. 

There will be multiple floors of the boat to give you the freedom to choose what vibes you want. My personal favorite is the rooftop because of the sun, and the spritz of the waves! There will be DJ entertainment to turn up to the whole time. You can be jack and rose on the front of the boat for a photo op! Many places around the boat are amazing photo opportunities with the Chicago skyline in the background. There are bars on all floors of the boat!

Chicago Skyline Cruises’ Labor Day Cruise will take place Friday, September 4th from 8:30pm-11:30pm aboard the Anita Dee ll boarding at Dusable Harbor.

It wouldn’t be smart to miss out on a night to cruise the lake with your friends with all your friends drinking, dancing, eating, exploring and more! It’s such a fun and safe environment to celebrate with your friends instead of being cooped up in nasty bars. You won’t have any regrets!
