Coney island is wild. I went there for the first time and loved it. I didnt even go out on the water, just walked on the boardwalk and rode a few rides. The wonder Wheel was really cool, riding a piece of history and engineering marvel. I wanted to ride more but the prices are a little high. Seeing so many people represented on Coney Island was really impressive. There were people listening to all types of music, a house music dj playing and live south American music with a crowd of people dancing and watching. We had a fantastic lobster roll at Paul's Daughter which was priced well. I had a chili cheese dog and regular dog from Nathan's. People say you can get a dog from any cart or Nathan's store and it's the same...it is not. Theyre so crispy with the snap, chili sauce was great. Their jalapeño ranch fries were fire. I haven't had a crinkle cut fry like them and they changed my life. Paid 40 dollars for beach parking but it was worth it. Super close to...

You have the Amusement park, Wonder Wheel ride, the Aquarium, famous Nathan's hotdogs and many stops on places to eat at. You have many treats as well from Candy/Caramel apple, funnel cake and many candy selection to choose from.
You have a few different options you can choose from to get here as well, from cars drive to bus and subway as well. Subway leaves you the closest and parking could be difficult if you're not familiar with the neighborhood.
They filmed a few movies with one being a favorite on mine as the Worriors back in 1979.
If ever in the Brooklyn, New York City area, this should be a stop for sure. I also recommend that you don't wonder around the neighborhood outside the tourist area. Not the best area if you don't know your surroundings. Hit like/thumbs up if you...
Read moreA wonderful and magical place full of pop cultural relevance. The pictures, details and signs on display at the Coney Island Museum are fantastic, the service and staff are unique, and even the toilets are impressive. I don't usually watch films shown on museum screens, but the short films shown at the Coney Island Museum immediately captivated me and added to the atmosphere. It is quirkey, creative, inspiring and gripping. The museum pays so much respect and tribute to Coney Island as a place that it truly is recommended to anyone who enjoys this fabulous locality. It's an absolute disgrace that Coney Island will apparently soon fall victim to a casino. Coney Island is a New York City landmark, far removed from pompous tourist hotspots, with a lot of heart and a great American style with high...
