I have frequented this beach countless times and the parking lot is perfect for hosting events due to its enormous size. It's also an ideal spot for beginners to practice driving or riding a motorcycle. The park is vast and boasts a huge playground for children with all the usual equipment such as swings, slides and monkey bars. The handball and racket ball courts are fantastic for enjoying hours of spectator sports. The diverse range of cultures in this area can be very humbling at times. Taking a moment to sit back and appreciate the different music and smells of food is what truly represents New York.

The beach in the Bronx is quite pleasant, with a variety of amenities including concession stands, a playground, basketball and tennis courts, and bathrooms. There are also plenty of grassy areas for picnics and walking trails. Not to mention, the sand is a lovely golden color. Additionally, bus stops are conveniently located nearby.
