You can take swim lessons at the YMCA (indoor pool though)in Ansonia. Oxford has Jackson's Cove which has a sandy beach and a roped-off swimming area. There are lifeguards on duty and there may be a new playground ready this year. Your son can wear a life vest but not floaties or swim "wings" allowed. I don't know if non-residents of Oxford are allowed there, but you can call Oxford Town Hall to findout.

Wolfe Park in Monroe is very nice. Has pool and Lake beach. Many playgrounds. Also has kiddie pool which is hard to find.

HI C.! Welcome to the area! Check out Wolfe Park in Monroe. They have a pool, kiddie pool, lake with beach and a playground, plus hiking paths tehre. It may be a bit expensive as a non resident, but it's a beautiful place!! good luck and have fun!!

The YMCA in Naugatuck has swimming lessons provided as well. As far as I know - to become a member is only $40.00. You can call them and find out :).. Have a safe/fun Summer!

Quassi is great. They have rides and the beach too. I prefer the beach, as I am not big on the rides. See if they have a deal for summer passes. Go to www.quassi.com

I wish! I've been looking myself for a place near New Haven. I plan to check the responses you receive over time to find out what you find out! :) For a fun day-trip, though, you might want to check out Silver Sands State Park in Milford (beach and park). Pretty and fun. It doesn't fit your criteria, but it's a lot of fun and a very pretty beach.
