Orchard Beach and Promenade

Terrible beach at 6 o'clock everyone was kicked out of the water, at 6:10 from the beach. It is not clear why you can't just sit and watch the sunset. Were at low tide it is impossible to swim. Only walk. Very shallow, dirty and noisy.

Basically, this is the beach where everyone who grew up in the Bronx, would visit. Both summer & winter times. In the off season its the place to go to work-out/train. Once the Rocky movie came out, we would all jog/run the about 5 miles up the Bronx Park and into Pelham Pkwy, to the beach. Then up the entrance stairs playing the fight song & Eye of the Tiger. This began my career as an expert martial artist, aside from the Dojo on Gun Hill Rd . As far as the beach, goes In the summer time gets extremely crowded. Forget about driving here, traffic backed-up, almost to the bridge. And the water is never clear, basically hit & run as far as polluted water goes. However the backwoods, hidden behind Hunters Island is a paradise for the Bronx. And perfect place to go island hopping across the Sound. Wonderful beaches on the other islands, although forbidden/taboo.😎 Absolutely Like 👍👍👍👍👍 Deeply Magically Mysterious Nature 💜💙💜 still one of the most spectacular places, with great "chi" mana/ki/prana (energy vibes) across the whole States 🤙🌍☯️💎🙏 , currently out west, and only place that's has better "Flow" is the ancient Redwoods of Humboldt county, Cali.💎🤙perhaps Hawaii, but still have not made it to that State💎 then its across the Pacific to the Philippines and the isles of Indonesia. to hang out with Jason Momoa, Aloha 🙏🤙🤙🤙

Clean beach, there are all amenities for recreation, large parking.

My hometown "Riviera"! An easy bike ride to the beach where friends & neighbors swim, play & dance as the seasons change.

A perfect week-end get away from hustle&bustle of NYC, easy accessible with metro 6 and a walk through the charming park. Worth to catch a breath!
