Summertime
in
the
City
is
the
accessibility
to
the
nearest
getaway
spot
for
pure
relaxation
and
enjoyment.
Though,
not
marked
“safe”
swimming
into
the
surf,
one
should
take
precautionary
steps
to
ensure
safety
at
all
levels.
There
is
a
drop-off
point
along
the
edge
of
the
waterline
that
immediately
creates
an
undertow—which
is
what
makes
the
surf
powerful
enough
to
pull
anyone
into
the
tidal
basin
and
underwater
with
the
outgoing
current
or
cross-current
tow.
Every
year
it
becomes
a
haven
for
people
of
all
ages
to
frolic
on
the
beach,
to
play
on
the
sand,
sunbathe,
and
maybe
swim.
Though
it’s
timing
that
makes
a
difference
when
the
water
is
its
safest
to
splash
around
in—especially
when
the
tide
is
at
its
very
lowest
point
one
can
find
that
there’s
a
submerged
sandbar
around
25-30
meters
offshore.
Many
love
swimming
out
and
walking
around
on
it
(whenever
it’s
low
enough).
But
at
all
other
times
it’s
hidden
beneath
the
waters
undetected.
Insofar
as
beach
goers
here
have
for
fishing,
it’s
always
lovely,
as
long
as
the
weather
holds
between
windshield,
the
sun,
the
slow
moving
clouds,
and
intermittent
rain.
Once
the
weather
temperatures
cool
down
with
the
seasonal
change
it
gets
cooler
sooner.
But
year
round,
there
are
miles
and
miles
more
sandy
beaches
to
explore
up
and
down
the
length
of
Long
Island
than
just
around
Breezy
Point.
That
is
if
transportation
from
going
from
one
end
of
the
beaches
to
the
other
is
never
an
issue
getting
there
back
and
forth.
But
generally
it’s
always
really
nice.
And
relaxing.
Truly.
