Foxxy B. • September 8, 2017For a public "city" beach, I'm impressed. No, I didn't (& probably wouldn't) take a dip, but for Labor Day the beach was pleasantly crowded & surprisingly convenient. A → S train during the summer!

Tracy S. • April 19, 2016Completely renovated and is so peaceful to take a nice walk -- especially before beach season and the crowds

Robin K. • August 25, 2015Great for surfing and to grab a pulled pork burger down by the beach after !

Tiah • July 25, 2017Was a big disappointment. Thought it was similar to Coney Island but was not. Nice if you are just looking for a beach. I'm thinking we maybe didn't walk far enough.

RC • August 19, 2020Over 20 years since my last visit, man this place has changed so much for the better ! Family & I enjoyed ourselves, oh and because of COVID, the water was so clear ! ❤️ Bring water shoes! 😉

A.J. F. • August 29, 2011When crowded with surfers, head to Beach 66th (either walk the boardwalk or take the Q23). Great rights and lefts anywhere between the jetties parallel to Beach 68th thru Beach 59th.
