Gotta say Im impressed by the beauty of this location. You can see right through the water its so clear. Its a lot warmer than the South Shore Beach and has an isolated feel to it. Im not familiar with the history of this space but I can tell it was once a project. The steps to get down arent the safest or it would get 5 stars. If a group got together to clean up the degree and fix the steps, I really believe this spot would be booming with life! Also great place to catch minnows for fishing.

A nice little escape where not too many people go where you can relax. Perfect for a romantic date where you can picnic or just to observe nature and dig your feet in the sand in the parks small beach area.

Racine has turned what was once just an old mucky forgotten Lake Michigan beach front into a wonderful established wetland. This is on the inside of the South breakwater so its protected from the lake. They added a boardwalk through the area with benches for viewing and informative plaques along the way. Its a very lovely place to walk through as well just sit on one of the benches and take it all in.Racine also erected a large pavilion/ gazebo above the wetland area in Myers Park. There is a Butterfly Garden planted next to it with information on Monarch Butterflies posted on a plaque there.Myers Park is a lovely little park with trees planted in memory of loved ones along with pretty evergreens overlooking the wetland trail and Lake Michigans calmer breakwater.There are a couple of paths through the park, one leading from the gazebo to the parking area. Another leads from the parking lot to the stairs leading down to the wetland boardwalk.For people who dont know, this is the small park just South of Gateway, down the hill on Pershing Blvd.

This space had vastly improved in recent years. With the new walkway, gazebo, benches, and sand prairie plants, it really feels like a place worth visiting. Had a picnic with the family and walked along the planks. Loved it!

The beach is beautiful, but it is full of trash laying around. Im sure that if there was a clean up a few times a year, it would look better.
