Mohegan Lake Beaches Can Reopen

The Westchester County Health Department has determined that Mohegan Colony Association Beach and Mohegan Beach Park District in Mohegan Lake can reopen for swimming, provided there has been no Harmful Algae Bloom (HAB) in the swimming area for at least one day, and the bloom has not returned since the water sample was taken on August 20.

The bathing area of the beaches will continue to be monitored.  Beach re-opening samples can only be collected after the bathing area is free of the harmful algae bloom for 24 hours. These are the only County regulated beaches on Mohegan Lake.

Residents and visitors are encouraged to visit the Westchester County website for the latest updates on beach closures and reopening schedules. The County remains committed to maintaining high standards of environmental health and safety across its recreational facilities.
