We wanted to soak up some sun during a rare warm day this spring. Rye Beach is not far from us and I decided to visit. During the summertime I had seen that it was very full but before the season I reasoned it should be less populated.

Since the beach was not yet officially opened for the season we did not have to pay for parking or beach access. We didn’t go swimming as there was no lifeguard and it wasn’t that warm yet. We sat in the sun while the kids played in the sand and dipped their feet into the water.

Parking for the beach is near the Rye Town Park. The park has large open fields, a pond and gazebo. The beach begins there with access points throughout the Boardwalk all the way down to Rye Playland Amusement Park.
