The Long Island Sound beach has a fishing pier, pavelions, and public restrooms. Contains tennis courts, handball court, a basketball court, and four softball fields. There's also a popular local sledding hill the park. Parking at the beach requires a season pass during the summer months that can only be purchased at the Stamford Government Center, and the booths at the entrance only sell $20 day passes. However, there is parking on multiple streets, directly around Cummings. On McMullen Avenue and Wascussee Lane, both directly off Soundview Avenue, parking on the street is legal.

Use caution here at night, don’t travel alone, and avoid extreme intoxication. The police usually make an appearance here at least once a night.
