I have lived in Belle Harbor and Rockaway almost all my life. The Beach is a free one. Parking in the higher numbers is difficult. Best to come by ferry or mass transit. Further down, there are food services, bathrooms and ba nice boardwalk.

Broke my wrist here when I was 10 by running on the outside of the boardwalk rail and falling off. The life guards took good care of me. Always has been a beautiful beach. Last visit 1973
