The entrance fee for a beach varies significantly depending on location. For example, Crystal Lake Park District charges residents $1 per adult (ages 16-59) and $1 per youth (ages 4-15), while non-residents pay $15 and $10 respectively; children 3 and under and seniors 60+ are free[1]. Centennial Beach in Naperville lists daily admission for residents at $10 per adult and $8 per youth, with non-residents paying $17 and $15, and afternoon discounts after 5 p.m.[3].
At Indiana Dunes National Park, there is an entrance fee for all beaches, trails, and sites: $15 per individual (walk-in/bike-in/boat-in), $25 per carload for a 1–7 day pass, and annual passes starting at $45[2][4]. Indiana Dunes State Park charges $7 per in-state vehicle and $12 per out-of-state vehicle for daily entry, or annual passes valid for all Indiana state parks[2][6].
