Beach Road

This is a popular swimming spot on Lake Ontario, where Route 57 and Beach Road divide.  The beach is just down the shore from the public boat launch, and you’ll see a narrow beach that runs alongside the road.  We parked on the road side, and from there it is probably ten steps to get […]

Alexandria Bay Town Beach

This is a tiny town park, but very picturesque.  It is within walking distance of downtown Alexandria, which is a popular tourist destination with lots of restaurants and shops to explore.  The beach has turquoise water and is adjacent to a small park with a bridge to a tiny island.  This is more of a […]

Bastion Falls

Our GPS reading is from the parking lot, which is large and has some information placards about the area.  The GPS for the base of the falls is +42 11.486, -74 04.226. This is a very popular spot and you will have trouble parking on nice days and definitely on weekends.  From the parking area […]

The Waddington Recreation Park and Beach

If you’re coming from the direction of Coles Creek State Park, the town beach in on the right hand side before the Kunoco gas station.  This location is a little unknown, because we didn’t see an official beach set up.  We were told by kids in the park that people just swim off the rock […]

Robert Moses Thousand Island State Park, St. Lawrence State Park

This park is a little confusing, but it isn’t hard to find your way.  According to the map the swimming beach is actually located in St. Lawrence State Park, but it seems to be run by the nearby Robert Moses Thousand Island State Park.   There is also another park in New York called Robert […]

Lisbon Beach and Campground

This is a town run beach and campground on Marty Ryan Way off of Route 37.  The RV park detracts from the area a little bit, but it is separate and a little ways back from the beach.   Overall the beach area is very nice, and has great views.  The swimming area is medium […]

Kring Point State Park

This is a very scenic area for camping.  It is on a peninsula, with large rock outcroppings sloping into the water, and wonderful views. The beach is a little small though, and the swimming area is medium sized and shallow.  However, it did look like a lot of people were swimming and using floats off […]

Jacques Cartier State Park

This park has a large playground and a medium/large swim area and beach. There is an unusual terraced picnic area, which is very pretty.  We found the park to be fairly quiet even on a Saturday. http://www.stateparks.com/jacques_cartier.html http://parks.ny.gov/parks/114/details.aspx

Howard Park, Waddington

This is a town park with exceptional views of the St. Lawrence River, and is all around just a lovely area to spend the day.  There is a medium sand beach, a swimming area with clear blue water, and a playground.  One of the prettiest town parks that we visited. http://www.townofwaddington.com/recreationparks.html

Coles Creek State Park

This state park has a sand beach and a small swimming area.  The campsites surround the beach, which makes the area feel a little close and too crowded.  There are pretty views of the St. Lawrence River though, and you can see Canada across the water. http://www.nysparks.com/parks/72/details.aspx
