===Marinas and harbors=== Two Lake Michigan marinas are accessed from Grant Park. Monroe Harbor provides 1000 mooring cans (served by tender service) and facilities in the expansive harbor east of the park.<ref name=Monroe>{{cite web |title=Monroe Harbor |publisher=The Chicago Harbors |url=http://www.chicagoharbors.info/harbors/monroe.php |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110719184905/http://www.chicagoharbors.info/harbors/monroe.php |archive-date=July 19, 2011 |df=mdy-all}}</ref> It is home to both the Chicago Yacht Club and the Columbia Yacht Club. ''Queen's Landing,'' at the center of the harbor and park's shoreline, is named for a 1959 visit there by Queen [[Elizabeth II]] aboard the [[Royal Yacht]] ''[[HMY Britannia|Britannia]],'' in conjunction with the opening of the [[St. Lawrence Seaway]]. Du Sable Harbor, created in 1999 north of Randolph Drive, offers 420 boat docks and a harbor store.<ref name=Dusable>{{cite web |publisher=The Chicago Harbors |title=DuSable Harbor |url=http://www.chicagoharbors.info/harbors/dusable.php |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110719184955/http://www.chicagoharbors.info/harbors/dusable.php |archive-date=July 19, 2011 |df=mdy-all}}</ref>
