Memorial Day is approaching this weekend and we all know what that means: the unofficial start of summer! And, just in time (especially with the weather not dropping below 80º this week) NYC beaches open for the season this weekend!
NYC’s beaches will open this weekend, Saturday, May 25th, and remain open through September 8th, 2024.
During beach season, lifeguards will be on duty daily from 10 am to 6 pm.
Don’t forget: Manhattan’s very first public beach officially opened last October. And be sure to check out these two NYC beaches that are among the best in the country!)
As for the many outdoor pools across the boroughs, those will open for the season on Thursday, June 27th, right after school gets out.
Outdoor pool hours are from 11 am through 7 pm daily, with a break for pool cleaning between 3 pm and 4 pm.
