Hudson Park & Beach

#newyorktrip There is a $5 fee to enter for non residents but definitely worth it. Beautiful little swimming hole with lifeguards and two different areas to go for a swim (the water is merky and a bit questionable) but locals seem to love it and it gets tested by the city daily. There is no shade so bring an umbrella and no concession stand so bring your own picnic. There is and outdoor shower and another inside the restroom wich was very convenient. The views are beautiful!
