Point Swimmers is a local open water swimming group based in Chicago's Burnham Park.

Point Swimmers is a vigorous local open water swimming presence that gathers at Promontory Point in Chicago's Burnham Park on the South Side. This landscaped grassy park sits on a man-made peninsula jutting into Lake Michigan and serves as an iconic landmark for the area. The site features a rocky shoreline with limestone block steps leading directly into water over 10 feet deep, making it an ideal access point for experienced swimmers. The location offers sweeping views of the Chicago skyline and acts as a favorite training ground for open water swimmers and triathletes. The group typically swims south from the point to the 59th Street Pier, sighting along the buoy line and passing 57th Street Beach in between, completing a one-mile round trip. Promontory Point is easily accessible by car, bike, or public transit, with parking available along South Shore Drive and the scenic Lakefront Trail passing through the park. While the area includes grassy picnic areas and public restrooms, there are no dedicated swim facilities or lifeguards on site. The group operates many mornings throughout the year, well beyond the summer season, and connects with other enthusiasts in the Chicago New City community.
