I love this beach. It is a fun environment to play volleyball, go swimming, running, or just relaxing catching a tan. This beach is always clean and just a good environment to hang out. They have a bunch of food vendors nearby.
Bradford Beach has come a long way! It's now a great place to have a cocktail, play some volleyball, watch some soccer, and catch some rays! Parking can be hard to come by in the summer, so it's usually best to plan on walking a ways. Do not make a left-hand turn out of the parking lot! Cops patrol the area and will pull you over and ticket you.
Awesome beach easily one of the best Milwaukee has to offer. Real SOFT sand and very clean water as of fall 2017. Also FREE!!!
Beautiful place by the lakefront. I love in Chicago and this Milwaukee beach/lakefront is a nice change of scenery. Very clean. I would highly recommend coming to check it out.
Nice sand, volley ball courts, several. But with food/drink right on beach. Large lifeguard tower. Nice location.
Great place to hang out on a Saturday or a Sunday Tiki Huts serve decent food and you can get a bucket of beer there if you're going to bring your own don't bring bottles.
Great beach, the beach was pretty crowded when I was there. But it didn't feel like it. There was still plenty of room, to have your own space and do your own thing.
This is a great beach to visit because of the natural land-forms on exhibit. Honestly a beautiful view.The water was cool,too cold too swim even in July but felt refreshing. You can enjoy lots of activities like volleyball . It gets really crowded when it is sunny day. Parking is Limited! I mean very limited! Limited parking!! Hard to find a spot.
What happened? While I wasn't looking, Bradford Beach has become INCREDIBLY cool! Visit here on a sunny Summer day and you'll feel like you're at the coolest beach in southern California, South Padre Island, or Miami. Perhaps I'm stretching it a bit, but it's close and really cool! I love that they've now got three beer-serving cabanas. That's my jam: a bar stool in the sand and people-watching. I never make it into the water here, but many do just check the alerts before entering. Milwaukee's known to discharge some less-than-ideal urban secretions into the lake, but I don't think it's happened for at least a few years now.
Beautiful, tranquil beach walk! Best after summer months. Great place to soak up the sun, empty the mind and relax the soul. BREATHTAKING views. Steps away from a snack at North Point Custard. It says no dogs allowed, but dogs love it here too!
This place is a blast. Whether you're planning on spending an entire day here playing pickup volleyball games or just passing by. Staff does a good job of keeping the beach clean and enjoyable for everyone. Good people watching too - always some interesting characters hanging around during the summer months.
This beach is beautiful in all seasons. I've travelled here many times in summer, fall, and even winter. I especially love coming here in fall and winter - the beach is much less crowded than in the summer and the water and landscape is lovely and seems to change every time I come here. The winter ice has been gorgeous this year. There is also plenty of sea glass to collect! If you're a collector, you'll find mostly soda green, olive green, beer bottle brown, and clear varieties of smooth sea glass. You can easily leave with a coat pocket full.
Beautiful beach, if you play volleyball they have many nets up. They have piles of lounge chairs, but charge $20 to use them. I'm disabled and forgot to bring a chair. I would think they would just want to make some money on them. So lower the price on rental. That's why I only gave 4 stars.
VERY IMPRESSED. Entire area is CLEAN AND WELL KEPT! Trees nearby for shade. just 10 minutes from the main attractions in Milwaukee. Feels like you're on a beach in Florida it's a huge beach, clean soft sand, multiple cantinas that make great drinks, lots of volleyball and socializing that stays centralized so if you want quiet beach relaxation just walk away from the main hustle and you get peace and quiet! The view is great! Giant boulders line the water before and after the sand beach which are beautiful to walk along. Will definitely come back for weekend getaways.
