The street signs are listed differently on Google maps, but this location is actually on Pine Street. You follow Pine St. from Warsaw St, and then the beach is next to the baseball field which is on N Serval St. 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. There is an updated pavilion where they hold events, and a tiki beach bar and restaurant in the main building. There are also cute concession stands on the beach itself, […]
This is a weird area because we believe it is a public town beach, but it is surrounded by a couple of bars/clubs. Apparently it is quite the party scene. Either way, there isn’t much parking, so you might have to eat at a restaurant just to use their parking lot. Our GPS is for […]
This is a town park with a medium sized beach, and two lifeguard stations. The swimming area wasn’t roped off when we were there, so we don’t know how large it is. There is a picnic and pavilion area, bathrooms, and a playground. Next door is a lighthouse you can visit. http://www.dunkirktoday.com/city-offices/parks
Letchworth State Park is called the “The Grand Canyon of the East” and was voted the best state park in America by USA Today readers http://www.stargazette.com/story/news/local/2015/04/01/top-state-parks-usa/70781988/ The park has multiple waterfalls, lots of cabins to rent, camping, a restaurant, and gift shops. There is a lot to do here, and the falls are stunning. We started […]
This is a fun little town beach, with a bar and restaurant beside it. There is Carribean blue water, a large beach, and a pretty view of the bluffs. There are multiple lifeguards, but only a small swimming area was open when we were there. The area feels sort of cute and kitschy. http://www.townofevans.org/departments/parks/lebp.html
There is a small to medium swim area, and a huge sand beach. This is a beautiful area, with turquoise water and stone cliffs, and there also appears to be some kind of ruin. There is a large picnic area, and the facilities are updated and well maintained. http://nysparks.com/parks/91/details.aspx
There is something really great about this beach-it feels a little abandoned, like you’re at the end of the earth. You walk through the park and some forest, over a river canal, and then come out onto a huge sand beach with some vacant buildings. There is a lifeguard and the dunes are protected, and […]
This is a teeny tiny town beach, that is really more of a wading pool with a grass lawn and a lifeguard. The water is very clear, but has a mossy bottom. Very cute; one of the smallest locations we visited. Apparently you can rent the nearby schoolhouse for parties. Parking seems to be roadside. […]
This park used to be a YMCA school and summer camp, and has lovely buildings and cute cabins for rent. There is a small sand beach, with a small to medium swim area, and clear water. There are tennis courts, fishing, and extensive hiking trails available. There are also some waterfalls on the hiking trails, […]
