The Ramones may have put it on the map back in the 1970s, but over the years, Rockaway Beachhas maintained its reputation as a super summertime spot with great waves, good eats and a pleasantly sandy stretch of shore. This stalwart in Queens hosts the city’s only sanctioned surfing beaches, one between Beach 67th and 69th Sts and the other between ...
Dubbed the "Riviera of New York" when it opened in the 1930s, Orchard Beach is the only beach in the Bronx, and it remains a hot spot to this day. Don’t expect to find peace and quiet here. Between the playgrounds, the snack bars, the promenade with restaurants and retail, and dozens of basketball, volleyball, and handball courts, the 1.1-mile-long...
At Brooklyn’s southernmost point, Coney Islandwas developed as a resort in the 1800s, and by the turn of the century, its amusement park attractions were drawing crowds from all five boroughs. Though its wide strand isn’t the cleanest, its boardwalk is hard to beat for people-watching. Steps away from the beach, Luna Park has rides, games and more....

Located off the South Shore of Long Island, smack-dab in the middle of the barrier island that gives it its name, Long Beachis less than an hour from Manhattan via the Long Island Railroad. But you’d hardly know it once you arrive. Given its pristine sands and surf-worthy swells, the town’s Ocean Beach Park could be half a world away, with only the...
A hop, skip and jump across a narrow inlet east of Long Beach, Jones Beach Island is considered to have one of the best beaches on Long Island. Its eponymous state parkis extremely popular, drawing some six million visitors on an annual basis. Its appeal is due in no small part to the open-air amphitheater, a beautiful venue overlooking the bay and...
Accessible only by ferry, car-free Fire Island– another barrier island, situated east of Jones Beach – is a welcome change from the gridlock on the rest of Long Island. The boat takes you directly to a number of destinations across the 32-mile-long island, but if it’s your first visit, get off at Ocean Beach, a quaint village with postcard-ready st...
One of the largest freshwater beaches in the state, Plattsburgh City Beach is in the northeasternmost reaches of New York on Lake Champlain, directly across the water from Vermont and the Green Mountains. In addition to its stellar views, it’s good for a sporty day out – kayaks and stand-up paddleboards are available to rent – or an excursion with ...
No list of New York beaches would be complete without a mention of the Hamptons. Once a sleepy fishing community at the easternmost point of Long Island, home to artists, surfers and creative types of all stripes, Montauk these days is party central in the peak summer months but remains charmingly low-key in the off-season. Less than 2 miles from t...
