Neighborhood Guide

The beach is your backyard.

New York City’s only surf beach, a boardwalk lined with local food, and real neighborhoods with real community.

Why Rockaway

City address. Beach-town life.

The Rockaway Peninsula offers something rare in New York City: ocean views, sandy beaches and a relaxed, small-town feel, all within reach of Manhattan.

Mornings start with a walk on the boardwalk. Weekends mean surfing, beach volleyball and sunset dinners by the bay. And when it’s time to head into the city, the NYC Ferry and the A train get you there.
