Newburgh Bay

Newburgh Bay is a feature of the Hudson River's west bank, located approximately 60 miles (105 km) north of New York City.

It takes its name from the city of Newburgh, New York, for many years the major port on this section of the river.

The Roseton and Danskammer power plants are located at the north end of the bay, in the town of Newburgh.

It begins roughly at the Hudson Highlands near the village of Cornwall-on-Hudson, New York, and extends some 10 miles north to Danskammer Point.

The recently restored Newburgh–Beacon Ferry makes passenger-only trips between the two cities during commuting hours in the morning and evening for riders on the Metro North Hudson Line's Beacon station.
