JUNE 2017 - Currently Frink Dock is posted as CLOSED to swimming until further notice. This is not due to failing water quality testing, but other factors such as this season's high water and swift current off the dock.

Frink Dock, located at Frink Park in Clayton, New York, is an ideal swimming location for people who want to enjoy the park, the St. Lawrence River, and the town of Clayton. There is no true "beach" at this location but it is a lively place to swim during the summer months with families bringing picnics and fishing poles. There is also a farmer's market there on Thursday evenings and a summer concert series on Sunday evenings.
