Common questions
Is South Pond in Florida open today?
South Pond is not monitored right now. MA DPH samples beach water Memorial Day to Labor Day and posts no advisories or all-clears off-season, so there is no swim status to report. Swimming off-season is at your own risk.
Are there restrooms at South Pond?
Public restrooms are listed near the beach. Seasonal hours are common, so they may be closed off-season.
Can you swim at South Pond?
There is no MA DPH swim status for South Pond off-season: the state samples beach water Memorial Day to Labor Day. Swimming off-season is at your own risk; check conditions posted at the beach.
Are dogs allowed at South Pond?
Leashed or tethered (10-foot max) except while hunting, hunt-dog training, or search-dog training, under DCR's statewide pet rule; pets are banned from designated swimming areas May 1 through Sept 15
