Make the Most of Your Rockaway Park Stay

A coastal neighborhood with character

Rockaway Park occupies a distinctive stretch of the Rockaway Peninsula, where the Atlantic Ocean meets a tight-knit community known as the "Irish Riviera." This year-round neighborhood maintains its heritage through the city's second-largest St. Patrick's Day parade while evolving into a sophisticated beach destination. The 5.5-mile boardwalk connects you to the only legal surfing beaches in New York City, while modern architectural interventions blend thoughtfully with Victorian-era structures that recall the area's resort origins.

Dining and modern amenities

The Rockaway Hotel anchors the neighborhood's upscale offerings with Margie's restaurant serving creative American cuisine and a rooftop bar delivering panoramic ocean views. The Wharf Bar & Grill provides waterfront dining focused on seafood and sunset watching. The Flight 587 Memorial and Tribute Park offers reflective spaces with views across Jamaica Bay to Manhattan's skyline, reminding visitors of the community's resilience.

Getting there and exploring nearby

The NYC Ferry from Wall Street provides a scenic 57-minute journey, while the A train offers direct subway access. JFK Airport sits just minutes away by car. Adjacent Jacob Riis Park features an Art Deco bathhouse and seasonal beach bazaar, while Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge offers exceptional bird-watching.
