Manhattan Beach Park — Attraction in New York

Been going to Manhattan Beach seen I was a baby for over thirty years now. I see the changes over the years some of them good some bad. As soon as you park your car and walk in there's tables, spaced out with trees that can give some shade. But towards one side, New trees are growing. They are currently small and doesn't give any shade at all. So to get the tables with the shade have to be there super early since there isn't many. You are allowed to grill in this area and it's awesome for any occasion. The walk from the sidewalk to the water isn't bad at all. Love the sidewalk. It's simple but still nice to walk, kids bike ride, scooter, and some people go for a run. Viewing the water at the far left there's a nice end that people usually fish. As a kid my dad use to come super early to go fishing there. Not sure if that's still allowed. In recent years feel there's too many things in the water. But this has to do with the people that don't clean up after themselves. There's plenty trash cans there so their shouldn't be any excuse. Another rule they added they dont let you have any water tubs or beach balls at the water. The bathroom (well woman's, since never been to men) are kept in great shape. There's always someone there being attentive, filling the toilet paper, soap etc. Currently is important to wear a mask when going in and there's usually a stand outside that provides mask. Growing up as a child I remeber the showers being right outside the bathroom wall. Now they only have one by the tables, more need to be added at least. The food servings size have gone down as the prices gone up at the food stand. As a child remember getting huge pieces of chicken, fresh nice and krispy with a huge cup full of fries for 6 dollars. Now it's like 10 and there's only chicken tenders, very small pieces with a tiny cup with fries. I know times have changed but surely miss the chicken. The ices are good, they have plenty of flavors and they serve a lot in a cup that the little kids can share. The ice cream is vanilla or chocolate but plenty of toppings. Recently they never have chocolate so I stopped going over all. There's also a park towards the left side of the parking lot. Right outside the park there's more tables and trees for shade. I still love this beach the way it is small and workers maintain clean...

We ventured to Manhattan Beach last week and had a nice time. The barbque area was faily full, but mistly wveyone seemed to be mild mannered and at peace for a good time. The beach was fairly clean. There was also a plastic wqlk way od sorts that made walkibg to the shore, pratical and simple. Swimming guards were plentiful, easily visible, and diligent in their duties to keep watch over swimmers and send8ng cautionary reminders for safety with the blow of a whistle.

We had a pleasant experience with the parking lot attendant and a maintenance employee. Both representatives were pleasant, friendly, and nice representatives of the Manhattan Beach staff.

As we took our leave about two hours later, due to lighting, thunder, and a classic downpour of rain, we found laughter and delighted in the overall pleasant day at the ⛱️ . This was our nice day, even though I mistakenly walked into the wrong building that I thought was the Ladies Room and was yelled at by an employee (so sad...). We shared our good times with family and friends alike.

Thank you, Manhattan Beach Staff (including the not so nice female worker). Your collective teamwork is appreciated, and we wish you all peace and success in your...

A true gem right here in Brooklyn. Great for families! There is a playground with sprinklers, basketball court, tennis court, and a lovely little "boardwalk" to stay out of the sand. This is an accessible beach to a point.

Lifeguards on site from 10am to 6pm daily.

Designated BBQ area with benches accessible by the parking lot. Get there early for the best spot. There is also a cafe to purchase food and drinks if needed.

Paid parking facilities, $8 weekdays and $22 weekend and holidays. Parking lot closes at 8pm. Street parking is not allowed from May to September (cannot remember the exact dates.)

Restrooms are available and are kept very clean. Outside showers are also available to get the sand off (these get pretty busy.)

Manhattan Beach 🏖️ is definitely our preferred location. Please enjoy the facilities and remember to use trash cans or take your trash.

Happy...
