STAYCATION: BEACH SEASON AT CONEY ISLAND 2022



Harlem Bespoke:  The Independence Day weekend is here and a lot of us are just going to save some money and do the time-honored staycation.  New York City is a big place and most residents do not get to see other neighborhoods on the weekly grind so this is a chance to check out some of the beaches at the outer boroughs.  Notably Coney Island has had the amusement park running again earlier in the season and now nature lovers can head to the shore. We have been visiting the iconic Brooklyn destination for decades now and everything has really changed dramatically as far as the grit factor goes.  There are even new rides, restaurants, a modern NYC Aquarium and the iconic boardwalk to discover all over again.  Another plus is that it is one straight subway ride on the D train but just remember to pad in 45 minutes or so for travel time each way if departing from 125th Street.
