Orchard Beach Custom Search   The shoreline has been MUCH cleaner !! AND, the sand that was added is GREAT, I no longer have to wear my ''water shoes'' because of the rocks. THANK U! I come from Rockland Co. and it is so close, only about 45-50 mins. I used to drive all the way to the Jersey shore before a friend told me about Orchard. I LOVE ORCHARD BEACH! Hey...how about a bumper sticker that says that??? Says Christina Press Is scuba diving permitted at Orchard Beach (maybe the     other side of the rocks) in mid summer? Thanks. Says Tom Heimer It would be great if someone would rake up the trash and seaweed along the shore line! Says Christina press How do I get to orchard beach from manhattan?
