Sit down at Dive Oyster House for a pre-sunset drink and appetizers. The outdoor seating is pleasant in the mild afternoon air, and the happy hour menu offers good value before the evening rush.
16:06
Walk to Scarborough Park. This small patch of green borders the Hudson River and offers one of the only riverside views in Briarcliff. Arrive early enough to find a spot on the benches or walkways facing west.
16:51
Watch the sunset. On this date, the sun sets toward the WSW, aligning perfectly with the open river view from the park. The sky turns over the water and the Palisades across the way.
17:21
End the evening at 105-Ten Bar & Grill. Return to the Law Memorial Park area for a hearty meal in a traditional American setting with moody lighting, perfect for digesting the crisp evening air.
Local tip
Scarborough Park is small, so arrive before golden light starts to secure a good vantage point. The view is best when the sun is low on the horizon.
