Albert's Landing Beach

Amagansett, New York

Also known as “Big Albert’s Beach,” this is a favorite spot for families. Located on Gardiner’s Bay, this beach offers calmer waters more conducive to young swimmers and fantastic boating and swimming. There is ample parking, although an East Hampton Town resident beach parking pass is required at all times. Amenities include restrooms and a picnic area with grills and picnic tables. There are no lifeguards on duty.
This is a Tier III beach.

COVID-19

Keep your distance from other people.

Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.

Suffolk County Health Services tests the water quality from Mid May - Mid Sept. Tier I beaches are tested 2-3 times per week and Tier II beaches are tested at least once per week, with more frequent testing at beaches where water quality changes often. Tier II beaches are retested if a sample exceeds water quality standards. Tier 1 beaches are closed after one sample exceedance and retested daily until reopened.

The samples are taken at knee depth, near known and potential pollution sources and from the most popular swimming spots.

Tier III beaches are tested once a month.
