This has been my beach for 58 years. I've seen the beach grow. I've seen the beach shrink. I've…read moreseen play items. Come and go. It's a great beach. It's protected by the Robert Moses sand bar. The food is good and fairly priced for being at a beach. They've added a bar area and it looks good. I'm not a drinker so I wouldn't know. The best thing they've added is closed showers. You can wash off and more showers outside to rinse feet. I love the upstairs area when I go in the winter it's protected, but you still get to enjoy the beach.

My review is based on our many visits to this beach in the off season, when we would take our dog…read morefor a walk near the surf. The beach is always magnificent with alternate white and red sand, and views out to the Robert Moses bridge and water tower. Last year, the Town of Babylon sent out a policeman who we nicknamed "Joe Friday." Joe has the personality of a box of rocks and only speaks in one syllable words. ("Is that your dog? Dogs can't be here. Leave now.") Otherwise, we would have easily given this park five stars. Since we are now between dogs, we went out this morning and found the beach as lovely as ever, and still not crowded. About half of the visitors were not wearing masks. There was a thriving population of fishermen along the edge of the beach. During the season, the park is restricted to residents of Babylon - their web page did not mention any pricing option for non residents.

We were scheduled from 4:30-6:30pm but ended up staying until just after dusk because it was that good. The back picnic tables made the perfect setup for deep conversations, games, and even s'mores by the grill. A few of us took a walk down to the water and got in plenty of steps--it was totally worth it for the views! I'd love to come back and check out The Salt Shack next time. On a quick walkthrough, I noticed how beautifully it was decorated, and the staff I met were so friendly. Even from the picnic area, we could hear and enjoy the live music, which was such a fun bonus. I was also surprised to see their full volleyball tournament setup--it turns out a friend of mine was even competing that same day! Cedar Beach really has something for everyone, and I can't wait to return.

There is a long path that leads through the Salt Shack (always wanted to eat there but it was way too early to pop in for a meal) and out into the beach. The beach was quiet but the lifeguards were out. We let Bubs run around in the sand before leaving. I did see a bit of garbage on the beach...people please clean up after yourselves. But yes, we love the beaches on LI and we have our favs. This is one of them, but if you're not a resident of the town you will pay a ton to park and for a pass. I think they stop charging after a certain time. But if you want to go for a beach day, it's worth it if you pack the car and go!

The one drawback is that the quality of the water is a little suspect since you're in a heavy shipping area.
