Orchard Beach
Description
Formerly known as "The Riviera of New York City," Orchard Beach, the Bronx's only beach, is still a popular hotspot on a hot day. The beach sits on the Long Island Sound and offers a one-of-a-kind view of City Island. If you need to get out of the sun, take a leisurely walk on the promenade and stop into some of the many shops and food venues.
