  3. A Day on the Beach – What Do You Need?

 

It’s heating up here in Indiana, and our beaches are the perfect place for you to cool off and enjoy the summer sun!

Here are some things to remember while enjoying the beach:

  • Bring sun protection!
  • Picnic off the beach – we have great picnic areas and shelters just for you!
  • Mind your music – listen to music with headphones, not loudspeakers!
  • Bring beach towels, beach chairs, sandals, and other creature comforts for the beach.
  • Supervise your kiddos – Kids aged 12 and under must be supervised by someone 16 or older.
  • Remember, except for Indiana Dunes State Park beach, our beaches do not have lifeguards.

We have swimming beaches at Brookville, Cagles Mill, Cecil M. Harden, Hardy, Mississinewa, Monroe, Patoka, and Salamonie lakes, and Chain O’Lakes, Indiana Dunes, Lincoln, Ouabache, Pokagon, and Potato Creek state parks, as well as Starve Hollow and Deam Lake state recreation areas. Some beaches offer mobility mats that lead from an accessible sidewalk down to the water.
