Grab the sunscreen on the Brooklyn Beaches

Only 15-20 min walk from our apartments you can reach sandy beaches and enjoy the sun.

Brighton Beach, Brooklyn

Known for its Russian population and popular neighborhood Little Odessa, this neighbor to Coney Island is a famous beach located in the southern part of Brooklyn. This beach is a vibe — pack a picnic or pick up some delicious food at some of the nearby eateries and enjoy the sunshine.

Coney Island, Brooklyn

Coney Island isn’t just a beach; it’s an experience. Families can visit The New York Aquarium, and now that the amusement parks Luna Park and Deno’s Wonder Wheel are open at 33 percent capacity, these are also fun spots to venture to before you take your place on the sand. The beach itself is always packed, so if you are looking for a quiet beach day, you may want to go early before the crowds show up. Or embrace this busy beach and enjoy the boardwalk food stands — just make sure to get you tickets for any extra fun like rides or the aquarium if you plan to include these attractions to your beach day.

Manhattan Beach, Brooklyn

If looking for a beach minus the bells and whistles, you’ll want to check out Manhattan Beach. There is a park for the kids, and you can bring your barbecue grill and cook right by your beach spot. The waves aren’t huge, and the vibe is chill, making it perfect for families with young kids.
