Memorial Day – NYC Beaches Closed
Memorial Day is Monday, May 25th (next Monday).
Walking on the beach is okay. Sitting on the beach for a bit is okay (Mayor de Blasio said this on Sunday, March 17th)
Congregating and swimming is not allowed.
Brooklyn Beaches like Coney Island, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach are closed on Memorial Day this year. Mayor de Blasio said that all NYC beaches are closed for Memorial Day 2020. He will put up fencing if he needs to keep people off the beach.
Some beaches are controlled by the federal government and they will be open starting May 22nd and for Memorial Day because Governor Cuomo made the announcement about this. Social distancing is required. These beaches include:
Fort Tilden Beach, Queens
Great Kills Park, Staten Island
Jacob Riis Park, Queens
