Rye Town Park

One of the most picturesque town parks with beach access I’ve ever been to. Spanish style buildings compliment the beach/​park setting. If you’re not into beaches there are acres of greens to walk & a lovely duck pond with fountains. There is a restaurant on the premise but I did not go in as we’d just finished up breakfast at the On The Way Café.

I really enjoyed coming here mid-​week one hot September afternoon. Not crowded. Just delightful. $ 5 to park. Clean bathrooms nearby.

We all want a piece of the good life. That serenity and peace that comes from being able to smell the smells, breathe the air and feel alive. An appreciation for nature is a must if you’re just passing through or making this place your permanent home. Feel free to take an aimless walk, bike ride or just sit in meditation absorbing the quiet serenity.
This place isnt perfect, but it sure reminds me of the important things: family, nature and consideration for the goodness in life. Sorry to drone on but you must understand the bit of gold to be found here. Not too far from NYC, but close enough to render itself an alcove from the ailments that are a normal part of city living. A great place for families and anyone who loves the outdoors. Dont be surprised to see wildlife roaming about– they belong here more than anyone else.
Having a car is a must, but the nice scenery and fresh air makes a long trip by foot a completely enjoyable experience. Although not the most diverse area, there are plenty of folks that dont fit the mold and are quite Fine with it. Of course, I love this little escape and not just for it’s well known amusements. Welcome, but just not all at once.
