B.B. Clarke Beach Park

Small beach and a play structure. Bad news, park is very small and requires you to navigate a few steps or a slope down from Spaight Street, and there is no parking except street parking on Spaight. Good news, Spaight is quiet and the park is a nice place to linger. There is no food available at the park or right nearby so bring what you want. Also, this being the north shore of Lake Monona, swimming is unappealing in late summer.
