Hello. I live east of Albany, NY and we want to get away for a weekend. It might only be for one night so I don't want to spend all of our time driving and with the cost of gas being high, that's another good reason not to go too far. Where is there a nice beach on the ocean that is a short distance away? We've been to Wildwood, NJ, but that's a 6 hour drive so not really a good choice. I don't need a boardwalk, just some clean sand and water and a nice comfortable room to sleep in. A few restaurants around would be nice too.
I've heard of Long Beach, but not sure what that is like or how far it is.
Thanks.

The ocean isn't very close here, except for New Jersey (Cape May can be nice) have you considered Lake George or Lake Champlain? Otherwise you could head for Cape Cod, but the traffic can be horrific.

The closest ocean would be in White Plains/southern Connecticut. Right down the thruway to 287 East. About 2 - 2 1/2 hours.

Hampton Beach in New Hampshire. About 3 1/2 to 4 hour drive, depending on traffic. And much nicer than Jersey, IMO.

3-31/2 hours your can be in Waterford Connecticut. There are a few Beaches in the area but mostly club owned. There is one that I love and it is on the ocean....Ocean Beach Park....You can find it on line as well. Very nice and clean!!
