Rockaway Beach
Surfing, Sun, and City Living
Rockaway Beach is the summer playground of Queens and a year-round home for a vibrant mix of locals and newcomers. It is famous for being the only legal surfing beach in NYC. The vibe is laid-back, artistic, and undeniably coastal.
Real Estate & Housing Market
The housing is diverse, ranging from new luxury condos with ocean views to historic bungalows and multi-family homes. The market has heated up significantly as more people discover the appeal of beach living within a subway ride of Manhattan.
Lifestyle & Community
It is a beach town with a city edge. Summer weekends are packed with visitors, but the off-season reveals a tight-knit, resilient community. The boardwalk is the main thoroughfare for biking and jogging, lined with concession stands that serve everything from arepas to burgers.
Transportation & Accessibility
The NYC Ferry has been a game-changer, offering a scenic 50-minute ride to Wall Street. The A train (and the Rockaway Park Shuttle) provides subway access, though the ride to Midtown is long (about an hour+).
Parks, Schools & Amenities
The beach and the 5.5-mile boardwalk are the crown jewels. Rockaway Beach Surf Club and local breweries act as cultural hubs. The area has seen a resurgence in dining and nightlife that rivals parts of Brooklyn.
Who This Neighborhood Is Best For
Rockaway Beach is best for surfers, beach lovers, artists, and anyone willing to trade a longer commute for an ocean breeze and a vacation lifestyle.
