Review:
Cooper's Beach is one of America's top urban public beaches according to Dr. Beach, located along the southern shores of Long Island overlooking the spectacular Atlantic Ocean. The fantastic beach is a favorite for city dwellers and urban tourists, only two miles from the town of Southhampton and easily accessible via the New York City public transit system.
Glittering sand dunes and impressive mansions back the beautiful beachfront, which offers full public amenities, including concession stands, chair and umbrella rentals, and a bathhouse. Waters stay temperate throughout the summer thanks to shielding from the ocean's Labrador currents, with lifeguards staffed on duty during the summer months. Bodyboarding and surfing are popular activities due to prime wave conditions, though smaller waves closer to the shoreline keep the beach safe for young swimmers.
