Confirmed from Irondequoit Bay Outlet Pier and Beach's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

We first visited here in 2019 as a place that was close to where we were driving from and for an easy way to step out onto Lake Ontario. Weather was warmer on that trip so there were more people walking on the pier, on the beach and in the water - whether swimming, wading or boating under sail or power.
Quick stop on our route. Cute little baby for morning or evening stroll. Great to see the winter bridge that connects Webster and Irondequoit.
We love the small quiet sandy beach so close to home. Parking is sparse, but a quick walk through the lot with the bridge and lake nearby is easy. Ok fishing spot, you'll always find a diverse crowd of chill people catching some rays or frolicking in the clear, clean water.
