Expert notes
- The best time to visit Coney Island is Memorial Day to Labor Day. There are lifeguards on duty at the beach, and all the rides and attractions are open daily from noon. Visitors can pair their trip to Coney Island with a visit to Brighton Beach, in proximity to Coney Island. The beach town's main street has Russian and Ukrainian shops and restaurants and a beautiful, well-maintained public beach.
