About Anthony Beach

In addition to our lovely beach, the club also has three bath houses which are connected by a long porch facing the ocean. The porch is a popular place to relax and gaze at the ocean, as well as beachgoers and their families as they mingle on the beach and in the water. It also serves to protect members from inclement weather or for a bit of shade on hot summer days. 

The bath houses contain lockers that members use to store beach chairs, children’s pails, shovels, fish nets, as well as all types of floaties, in addition to toilets and showers for members and their guests. Lockers are available to the membership on a first come first serve basis.

From the porch a boardwalk connects to a wood framed pier with a stairway that leads directly into the water (no need for tender feet to step on any pebbles!).

The swim area is enclosed and protected with a float line for swimmers. It contains two rafts which are always popular with swimmers. One raft is closer to shore for young children while the second is in deeper water. No watercraft are allowed within the float line to ensure swimmer saftey. Lifeguards are on duty during operating hours throughout the season.

Picnic tables are in several locations along the beach and a gas grill is available for use. The property also has a grass field where children and adults engage in various games and sports activities.

The association has its own private parking lot which is guarded by gate tenders who record daily attendance. One parking permit will be granted per name on the membership list (maximum of two per family).

A manager is always on duty to assist members with any questions or concerns. lifeguards are on duty in various locations of the beach to oversee the safety of swimmers.

There is a flurry of activity on opening day when coffee and doughnuts are served as Board members meet and greet members both new and existing. This is also the occasion when members receive their seasonal parking stickers.

In June, a beer, wine and cheese event is held for the membership to mingle and enjoy refreshments as they share family stories. Children play games and enjoy punch and cookies which are always at the ready.

In July, swimming lessons are provided by our lifeguards for a five-week period and end with a swim meet where medals and trophies are awarded. 

A family event is held in July and August where beachgoers can listen to some live music performed by local talented musicians.

As the season comes to a close, it’s time for children to say goodbye to newly found friends and for parents to wish each either well until they meet again next season.
