Crab Meadow Beach

Crab Meadow Beach extends over 1,000 feet along the Long Island Sound, featuring noticeable sandbars that create shallow pools during low tide periods.

The beach has maintained its status as a primary recreational spot for Long Island residents since the establishment of Fort Salonga's maritime infrastructure.

Local families gather at La Casa Café restaurant, which serves traditional seafood dishes while providing waterfront views of the Long Island Sound.

The beach operates daily from 8:30 AM to 8:00 PM, requiring seasonal permits for residents at $40, while non-residents face additional entry fees.

The formation of natural tidal pools during low tide creates protected swimming areas where children can observe small marine creatures.
