Sound Swim Alert For Westchester: The Beaches Are Open

Update Sunday August 10th:  Beaches are still open!

Saturday August 9th:  Enjoy the beaches throughout a sunny weekend!

All of the 10 beaches Westchester County that are normally closed after rainstorms are open for swimming and beach-going today.

Those beaches are at Harbor Island Park, Beach Point Club, Mamaroneck Beach and Yacht Club, Shore Acres and Orienta Club in Mamaroneck; Echo Bay Club, Davenport Club, Hudson Park and Greentree Club in New Rochelle; and Coveleigh Club in Rye.

We issue Sound Swim Alerts for Westchester every weekend and holiday throughout the summer, and, if the beaches are closed because of pollution, on weekdays as well. We will post a notice here on Green Cities Blue Waters telling you if the beaches are open, and we’ll also post it on our Facebook page and on Twitter (@savethesound).
