Sandy Hook National Seashore

All swimming beaches are open to the public. Fishing beach is also open but the parking lot at Fishing Beach is still closed. You can reach Fishing Beach by parking in Lot E and walking up the beach. Gateway is a vast park, crossing two states and three New York City boroughs. We look forward to opening as much of the park as possible when it is safe to do so. Demand could be heavy for the areas we are able to open. Please carpool! Surf fishing is permitted at all beaches except when lifeguards are on duty and when beaches are closed to protect nesting shore birds. An annual pass for nighttime fishing can be purchased at the Entrance Station.
