This is primarily a nudist area, so do be prepared to see naked people. The parking area is at the end of Taylor road. This is a popular spot, and even though it was cool and cloudy during our visit, the parking lot was full. From the parking lot, follow the dirt road a couple […]
We were running late and got here after closing, so we had to take pictures from around the fence. Â There is a dock and swimming area, and a nice playground. Â There also seems to be a dog park nearby. http://www.lakewoodny.com/recreation.php
Follow Hannum road to the end, and you’ll arrive in a parking lot where you’ll see two paths to the left hand side-one leading uphill, and one leading down. Take the one leading down. This is a wide and clearly defined trail, but it appears to be prone to wash outs, and is fairly steep. […]
The swimming area was closed during our visit, but seemed to be fairly nice, though a little small. Â The buoyed area is about the size of a pool, and has a grass beach. Â Overall this park has updated and clean facilities, and pretty picnic areas. http://nysparks.com/parks/109/details.aspx
The beach was closed when we visited, and it looked like it might have been that way for awhile, so it is worth calling ahead. Â They do list themselves as having a swimming beach, so we aren’t sure what the deal is. Â The water was a cloudy tan, and we didn’t see anyone swimming, though […]
This area was closed and surrounded by chain link when we got here, despite it being within the posted open hours-so you might want to call first.  This is a small beach with volley ball, basketball courts, two swimming docks, and a small swim area.  We couldn’t see very well from the outside. http://www.cassadaganewyork.org/cassadaga-beach.html
This beach is close to Zebro’s Restaurant, and just has a small parking area which is easy to miss. Â The sign says there is no lifeguard, and that by state law that means there is no swimming, but online people report swimming here… Â The beach is rather unremarkable, but a good place to picnic. http://www.tourchautauqua.com/Where-To-Play/Beaches/Barcelona-Harbor-Beach.aspx?mid=13438&c=25
The street signs are listed differently on Google maps, but this location is actually on Pine Street. Â You follow Pine St. from Warsaw St, and then the beach is next to the baseball field which is on N Serval St. Â There is a parking lot that runs alongside the beach. There is a large sand […]
We don’t know why this area isn’t shaded green on Google maps, but it is a huge state park beach, and one of our favorites. Â There is an updated pavilion where they hold events, and a tiki beach bar and restaurant in the main building. Â There are also cute concession stands on the beach itself, […]
This is a really pretty park that seems to be semi-abandoned…? Â There are signs saying not to swim when lifeguards aren’t present, but the lifeguard station looked shuttered. Â There is still public access though, and there are bathrooms, a playground, and sports fields. Call before coming if you want to find out about the beach. […]
