New York beaches - go glamping

New York beaches - go glamping

New York City has 14 miles of beaches! From beauties in the Bronx, to the historical sands of Brooklyn. Or what to think of surfing from Queens' Rockaway Beach or Long Beach.

Four of the five of New York City’s boroughs have excellent and highly popular beaches. Whether you’re looking for surf, sand, scene or all of the above, you’re sure to find a spot to while away those hot summer days.

Coney Island and Brighton Beach, Brooklyn

At Brooklyn’s southernmost point, Coney Island was developed as a resort in the 1800s. It is great for people watching and has Luna Park which is an amusement park just steps of the beach.  It even has a wooden rollercoaster dating back to 1927, a landmark in New York and something to experience!

The transfer is short - 30 minutes to 1 hour by coach, or you can even take the ferry from lower Manhattan.

More about Queens' Rockaway Beach

The Rockaway Beach is truly amazing. Not just a feast for visitors, but many New York residents love the Queens' Rockaway Beach.  It is becoming a popular surfing hub in New York. There is also a bike path which runs the full length of the Boardwalk.

New York beaches - go glamping

For fans of the outdoors, a Glamping (urban camping) option is available. What better way to experience New York than with the Skyline of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty as a backdrop.
