Pelham Bay Park · Directions
Pelham Bay Park combines Orchard Beach with forest, salt-marsh and lagoon landscapes, trails, playgrounds, sports, golf, and historic sites across New York City's largest park.
Its destinations are widely separated. Swimming, lifeguard coverage, golf, historic access, and other facilities are seasonal or separately scheduled, so choose one area before arriving.
