Weed Beach, one of Darien's two public beaches, is on the border with Stamford (separated from Stanford's Cove Beach by only a narrow channel of water). In addition to a sandy beach with unobstructed views of Long Island Sound, Weed beach possesses six tennis courts, five paddle tennis courts, Darien's Junior Sailing Team program, and several acres of coastal woodlands with a walking trail. In 2012, a new bath house, a paddle tennis warming hut, and a playground were constructed by the town for the beach. The bath house includes a concession stand maintained by Uncle's Deli that is open between Memorial and Labor Day weekends,
