About Rockaway Beach

Rockaway Beach sits on a long barrier peninsula at the southern edge of Queens, separating Jamaica Bay from the Atlantic. It is the best known beach within New York City and has a long boardwalk lined with surf shops, food stands and older bungalows. The area is low and flat, so the wide sand and open ocean give it a very different feel from the city just a short subway ride away.

What the camera shows

As a beach camera, the view is mainly about the ocean, the sand and the people using them. Conditions change a lot with the tide and wind, so the picture can look calm one hour and busy with surfers the next. Weekend afternoons in summer are usually the liveliest, while early mornings and late evenings tend to be quieter and better for checking the sea before it gets crowded.

Practical notes

Summers are warm and humid, while the ocean stays cool for swimming and is most comfortable from July to September. Rockaway Beach is reached by subway and bus from Manhattan and Brooklyn, and the ferry and boardwalk make it easy to walk along the shore. Other cameras nearby include the general view and a second view of the same beach, plus Long Beach about 13 km away.
