Crowded but great vibes and a vibrant colorful place for coffee juices or drinks on the side
Get the burritos . Still need to try the fish tacos !
Escape to the beach by subway, stay for the stellar food lineup at 97th St. including Bolivian Llama Party and Lobster Joint .
Lovely place and only one hour away from Manhattan. But on weekends it's very packed and can get trashy
Come early to snag a spot on the beach .
Great for surfing and to grab a pulled pork burger down by the beach after !
Cannot forget the raw clams , chorizo palenque, and the amazing swordfish with olives ! Y de dessert ya tu save "El Brugal"
Don't leave before getting a fish taco with guac from Rockaway Taco . And an Italian ice from DiCosmos. It's half the reason why you're here!
The Funhouse that was on 98th st, back in the day. Great memories. We lived here.
My families beach spot since I was knee high to a grasshopper. 98th all the way.
If you're gonna lie on your stomach make sure the backs of your knees are sunscreened or you're gonna have a bad time
If you've got time for the beach , or surfing , this is the place to be.
This happens to be the best spot! Water is to die for! Warm and not that salty!
Show up before noon if you want to find a good spot.
The ceviche mixto at Cevicheria is awesome
This is my fav.
Go early before the hoard and you'll have a lot of quiet time to yourself.
In the event you get caught in a rip current, fight it and swim directly towards the shore.
Authentic New England lobster rolls delish!!!!
We're set up here between 98th and 99th for the day! ????☀️???? ????
Low Tide Bar....dranks at the beach . Yum.
overcrowded beach ..but is fine...
Come for the arepas , stay for the surf .
water is very very cold usually
Jump in! Seriously. Get over here. Now!
A 10-mile bike ride from my place and totally worth it. Uphill going back into Brooklyn though. The smaller snack shack past the bathrooms has craft beer, Ample Hill ice cream, and empty picnic tables - Sarah Spagnolo
The kombucha shandy is part kombucha, part beer, and all awesome. - Steve Kinney
Frozen piña colada ????or pink lemonades ???????? take to the beach or enjoy the AC after the beach - Zucchini Rose
Always a good time. Favorite burger in Rockaway. Fries very good too. Tasty Micheladas to chill out, boozy Beach Juice to get crazy. Nice mix on the radio playlists and a relaxing atmosphere. - Jane O'Donnell
