    Nice place for a walk, with great views of the beach. The pier is 1100 feet long (335 meters). It was quiet when we visited on a Sunday morning.

    After all those Katrinas demolished the old wood covered pier it undergone some huge face-lift. The wood planks were replaced with some plastic boards that look like wood but dot get damaged with weather elements or tourist's smokes. The structure got fixed with some concrete, benches were added, some solar panels that feed the lights, roofs that provide shadow to visitors yet stay airy and don't degrade over time, at least not fast. Great job, must be some professional landscape whatever it's called designer company. Really on the level with new city development paradigm.

    Awesome place to visit very early in the morning, where biking on the boardwalk is allowed till 10 am. Pier is very well built and has enough places where you can sit and enjoy the beach and ocean. Lots of people do fishing using this pier. The best time to visit is Monday to Thursday, early in the morning.

    My go to place to enjoy sunset and beautiful views.... pier is mostly crowded and filled with happy people that sing and dance all evening long. You have to experience it once in life..... “The use of traveling is to regulate imagination with reality, and instead of thinking of how things may be, see them as they are.”

    First third of the pier was taken over by cuban/pr groups playing loud music and selling merchandise illegally. Most benches were quite dirty, rather chose to not sit down. The end was taken over by fishing rods.

    Good bluefish most evenings spring-fall, except in hottest months. Stripers make an appearance and a fluke or trout are often caught. Come for the rays and benefits.

    I visited here thanks in part to Requiem for a dream and now I can see why this area was used as a focal point for the film. Very serene and the views are wonderful. Well worth the visit!

    Always a good place if you don't mind the crowds and over priced average food.

    Part of a neat boardwalk with areas for fishing. Came here for a nighttime stroll and walked through an amusement park that had rollercoasters, Ferris wheels, and so much more. At the very end of the pier, you can see the whole view of the park behind you (see picture). The pier itself is surprisingly crowded, but you’ll enjoy the beachfront nonetheless.

    My favorite beach in New York City when I go with the kids they love to play with the sand. Dig the hole also usually when I go with the kids I go a little bit on the side because it’s easier to watch them in the middle. It’s too crowded.

    A very plain and simple pier that might not stand out in looks but it is such a treat. I love getting out there in the water early in the day. Such a great breeze. Late in the day is just great too. Do some fishing or people watch some. Grab a dog and come out and eat with a beautiful view.

  • 5/5 Arthur I. 7 years ago on Google
    Great place to fish or just take a walk. There is plenty of benches along with place where you can lie down on a wave shaped bench. Never seen one like that before. Oh did I mention fire 🔥works every weekend at 9? ;-)

👍👍 This pier sticks out so far into the Hudson River that you feel like you're halfway to New Jersey. There is a fantastic view of the George Washington Bridge looking north, and the skyline of New York City looking south. This is a nice, new pier with lots of seats and indirect lighting. It is not a p...
