Sea Cliff Beach
2023 Aug 28
Lovely little sand beach on the sound. The drive from the cliff is really nice especially during sunset (you get an expansive view of the water with all the lovely sail boats). Parking lot is ample parking spots. The beach could be landscaped a bit nicer but that’s okay…it’s really a local secret! Nice place for an afternoon summer stroll by the ocean. They have swings for both adults and children facing the water which is nice. Took my 7month old and he loved it.
One of my go-to day hikes around NYC! Extremely challenging the first 700ft up (scrambling that’s basically rock climbing).

Views on top of the Hudson River and surrounding peaks are gorgeous. If you take the red trail, expect to finish in about 4 hours (with breaks in between). Def bring at least 1liter of water and maybe a snack or two.

Parking situation is horrible. Try to get there by 8/9am if possible. Also, please don’t bring your dogs - too many tight spots and many people are not comfortable with dogs being around them (I’ve seen a situation where a hiker basically froze because a dog ran up without a leash). Not safe at all when you’re looking at a 200ft+ drop.
