End of Season:

The West Beach Board of Directors wishes to extend our appreciation for the support and patience offered by our community as we worked to deliver some normalcy and great summertime atmosphere. We extend special gratitude to those making donations toward offsetting operational expenses for this season. For those who would like to provide additional support for West Beach, please use this link to do so.

There was no manual for how to safely operate West Beach for the 2020 Season. The commitment of our community to one another cannot be overstated. It is clear, we are all in this together.

Though our official summer season has come to an end, our commitment to maintaining the safe enjoyment of West Beach has not. The gates will be locked, and remain that way until further notice. Walk-in access remains available; ALL rules for use remain in effect.

The items listed below are modifications to our traditional operations. Existing West Beach rules remain in full effect. Behaviors that put others at risk will not be tolerated.

  • West Beach will open June 15 for members ONLY. (9AM-9PM)
  • Walk-in access will be strictly for Beverly Farms / Prides Crossing residents ONLY. (Residency between 504 Hale St. and the Manchester line. Proof of address required)
  • Re-use 2019 parking permits and usage contract.
    • New residents needing parking stickers can purchase them at a 50% discount. 
    • New residents and those needing replacement stickers should email [email protected]  for details and contract.
  • Trash/Recycling will be carry-in / carry-out. NO exceptions.
  • Bathhouse lockers will NOT be accessible. We will provide 2 dates, TBD, to remove ALL stored items. Once cleared, the areas will be sanitized and sealed – No Re-entry.
  • Bathhouse restrooms will be available. One person at a time, distancing restrictions and one-way traffic patterns will be implemented.
  • The available parking will be reduced by 50% to start the season.
  • Restrictions will be implemented periodically to avoid crowding. 
  • No circular seating areas due to spacing restrictions. 
  • No shared equipment. Ball games, including but not limited to, volleyball, Kan Jam, spikeball, football, soccer, Kadima, bocce and Frisbee, are not allowed.
  • Increased security protocols will be in use.
  • Beach spacing, group sizing and social distancing guidelines need to be followed, masks covering mouth/nose are suggested to be worn when social distancing is not possible.

Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we work our way through this challenging time. The failure to adhere to all rules and policies will result in immediate loss of West Beach privileges. 

The health, safety and wellbeing of our community is paramount.
