What is Morgan Shoal?
Morgan Shoal stands upon the Chicago lakefront from 45th Street to 51st Street, covering about 4,460 linear feet of shoreline. At Morgan Shoal, the bedrock, found 90 feet below downtown Chicago, protrudes to the surface and is exposed. In July 1914, the Silver Spray passenger ship hit the Shoal and sank. The remains of the wreck can be seen from shore.
Pebble Beach is an area frequented by people that is full of small pebbles that range from volcanic, to glacial, to fossilized, to manmade. It is possible to enter the water from this ever changing pebble filled space.
People use this space to swim, meditate, nap, kayak, explore, stand-up paddle board, snorkel, and more. People even swim out to the historic shipwreck not far from shore!
