+| Rockland Lake State Park Pool            | Large outdoor pool     |                     10–15 min | Open, but last admission around 5:00 PM; closes 5:30 PM | Excellent pool with zero-depth entry, diving boards, and slides. Best if you can arrive before 5 PM. |
+| Germonds Park Pool (Clarkstown residents and their guests only)      | Outdoor municipal pool |                        10 min | Open until 7:45 PM                                      | Large public pool. Good backup if you miss Rockland Lake. May have residency/day-pass restrictions.  |
+| Tallman Beach & Pool Club                | Pool club              |                        15 min | Open until 7 PM (pool); club open later                 | Nice date-night atmosphere with food and drinks. More expensive than public pools.                   |
+| Lake Welch Beach (Harriman State Park)   | Lake beach             |                     30–35 min | Swimming until 5:45 PM                                  | One of the nicest natural swimming beaches nearby. Worth the drive if you can leave promptly.        |
+| Lake Tiorati Beach (Harriman State Park) | Lake beach             |                     30–35 min | Similar seasonal swim hours                             | Smaller and generally less crowded than Lake Welch. Official designated swimming area.               |
+| Reeves Brook / Pine Meadow Brook         | Forest stream          |                     25–40 min | Good for wading and cooling off                         | Not an official swimming area. Better for relaxing in shallow water than swimming.                   |
+| Pine Meadow Lake                         | Backcountry lake       | 35–45 min to trailhead + hike | Unofficial                                              | Popular with hikers for a swim, but swimming is not officially permitted.                            |
+| Nyack Beach shoreline                    | Hudson River shoreline |                      5–10 min | Shore access only                                       | Scenic, but not a swimming beach due to currents, rocks, and boat traffic.                           |
