If you don't, you'll be ticketed over and over again by the bay constable until you move your car, unlike other places in the city where you can remain parked once you get a ticket. So be warned! One really annoying thing is that people bring their dogs during off hours and some will bury their dogs waste in the sand instead of picking it up... If you're gonna own a dog... Own all of it, people!!! Still this beach has some awesome sand and great views of the ocean, amazing sunsets and equally beautiful full moon and stars view at night too! Multiple parking areas but one central area with spaces for bikes and electric cars and life guards and a hot and cold food shack with shower and bathroom facilities that was all rebuilt last year and looks beautiful.

It's a smaller and much quieter alternative to neighboring options, but still has everything you could want for the perfect beach day. Bathrooms? Check. Showers? Check. Food and beverage stand with a variety of options? Check. Short walk to the beach? Check. Everyone mostly behaves on this beach, which I appreciate. It's definitely not a "Hamptons party beach" (if you're looking for that vibe, Hot Dog beach would be my pick, where the surfer bros like to hang. It's worth noting that the bathrooms at Tiana don't open until the last week of June, so if you're coming here for the day before then you may have to brave the port-a-potty. Also, if you see a seal on the beach here, leave it alone or face a fine. That said, they're so fun to spot -- promise my seal photos are taken from a far distance with a zoomed in camera.

Located just down Dune Rd. from Ponquogue, this beach is far quieter than it's nearby brother. You'll always find the local surf talent here, along with HB residents looking for a quiet afternoon. As much as I love Ponquogue, this beach also holds a special place in my heart, after years of fun summer days spent on its peaceful sands. Most tourists are unaware of this beach's existence, and never drive past Ponquogue, although it's certainly gotten more visitors as the years go by.

We had no trouble getting one mid-day Friday, and the weather cooperates with a nice wind. $50 might seem steep, but it was worth it for the 3 of us to get out on the water and for my daughter to learn how to captain. The dude at the dock made sure my wife could control the boat and gave us a little guidance, then we were on our way to some light sailing fun.

They have beach access, lockers, food, a saltwater pool, and all the other things that you'd imagine. Getting a membership, I understand, is very difficult. This place is definitely a society spot, and they like to keep it that way. I've been inside a few times, but not since I was a little kid (my mom spoke of being shunned there for breast feeding, which she felt was tantamount to a human rights violation). I guess it's alright, although I never saw the point of having a salt water pool in the first place, and everything inside is designed to make you sure you're in the most exclusive of resort towns. I gave it three stars, but whatever - I don't think I'll ever go inside there again. Not my scene. Not a healthy one.
