Long Island beach in Queens borough that can be reached by subway. Popular destination for New Yorkers in mid-20th century, still pleasant to visit.
I have lived in Belle Harbor and Rockaway almost all my life. The Beach is a free one. Parking in the higher numbers is difficult. Best to come by ferry or mass transit. Further down, there are food services, bathrooms and ba nice boardwalk.

I grew up in Far Rockaway but never knew that this wildlife refuge was there. I recently moved back to New York and decided to venture over there and look around. The staff at the nature center helped guide me through the place and recommended different parts of the refuge to go to. I tried the West Pond and East Pond and was not disappointed. Lots to see! It is a huge area so I recommend comfortable sneakers or hiking boots and you need a few hours to look around and see the beautiful birds, especially waterfowl.

Broke my wrist here when I was 10 by running on the outside of the boardwalk rail and falling off. The life guards took good care of me. Always has been a beautiful beach. Last visit 1973
