That last photo could easily be mistaken for New Orleans. Well done.

Cool

Yeah, there are miles and miles of beachfront in the city, from Brooklyn, to Queens, and Staten Island. Even the Bronx has a beach, although it was created with sand from the other shores. I didn't intend to post so many from the Rockaways, but there is just so much there, it can go on and on.

Probably the best known waterfront in all of the city would be Coney Island, Brooklyn, though technically it's not an island anymore.

Going all the way Uptown to the borough of the Bronx, the only part of the city on the "mainland", but surrounded by water on three sides.
Orchard Beach and City Island are two of the Bronx's better known waterfront destinations. Pelham Bay Park also happens to be the largest park in the entire city.

Great pics.... many people forget about the sandy shorelines of New York.
Some beautiful beaches!! |
Manhattan, of course, is not immune from the waterfront bonanza. The northern shores of the island are very different from the middle and southern points.

You have done the city and the region a great service....great pics! This is what NY (metro region especially) is really like and I wish more people knew about it including other parts outside the city like the Hudson Valley (Bear Mtn), Eastern Long Island (out to Montauk), Conn, NJ shore etc.... Great work...please add some more! Thanks:worship:

The northern shore of Staten Island is home to the SI Ferry terminal, but its also home to the Staten Island Yankees (Richmond County Bank Park)- and a view of Manhattan accross the harbor...
