TEMPORARY BEACH CLOSURES

(White Plains, NY) – The Westchester County Department of Health has temporarily closed the following beaches after routine water quality testing detected bacteria levels exceeding New York State health standards.

Croton Point Park Beach

The beaches have been notified and closed to swimming out of an abundance of caution to protect public health.

The Department of Health will collect follow-up water samples.
