River Pool at Beacon is located just off the north shore of Pete and Toshi Seeger Riverfront Park at 1 Flynn Drive, Beacon, NY 12508. The park is only minutes away from Beacon’s train station and ferry dock as well as regional attractions such as DIA: Beacon and the Beacon Landing peninsula. The water quality at the River Pool site is one of the best in Dutchess County. From River Pool: "Like its historic precedents, the Beacon River Pool is partially submerged in the water, allowing River water to flow through. From the shore of the park, a ramp leads to the pool. This prototype pool is 20 feet in diameter with a water depth between 24 and 30 inches. The pool bottom, a high strength net made of Dyneema twine, is held in place by a rigid structural perimeter tube. Floatation/seats line the perimeter of the pool - offering pool users spectacular views of the River.
"The pool is used from early July to Labor Day and is stored in sheds at Riverfront Park in the winter season. The success of this prototype will facilitate the development of larger and deeper floating pools in the future."
