This beach is less popular for sunbathers than nearby Coney Island, although it is just a short eastward stroll away along the boardwalk. The neighborhood of the same name is highly populated by Russian Jewish immigrants. On this beach - and on Coney Island as well - you do not need to be tanned and fit to feel at ease in a bathing suit. Of course you can find hot dogs here, but there is also Russian, kosher and Arabic food available. Admission is free.
