Loyola Beach

Fieldhouse, restrooms and a playground, with parkland running four blocks south to Pratt Avenue. A half-mile bike and pedestrian path connects the north end to Tobey Prinz Beach, right beside the sand, with a long concrete bench that gets repainted each year during the Artists of the Wall Festival. Blown sand across the path is normal in summer.
