The 20-mile-long lakefront path that borders Lake Michigan's shoreline is 6 blocks east of the Hyatt Chicago Magnificent Mile and is popular for running, walking, biking, or in-line skating. Bicycles, in-line skates, and pedal-powered buggies for groups are available for rent at several beachfront locations. During summer, Oak Street Beach, 0.5 mile north, and North Avenue Beach, 1.5 miles north, are popular for sunbathing and for swimming when lifeguards are on duty. Also in summer, beach volleyball courts are available for rental and pick-up games. Public tennis courts and a public golf course are both 4.5 miles northeast of the hotel. The Hyatt has an on-site 24-hour fitness gym.
