Latest reviews on Irvington's beaches

Coney Island Beach
10 Zinix

It's always a stunning experience visiting this beach, and my 8-year-old daughter adores it here. Don't miss out on the boardwalk and pier, especially during the hours of 6pm-11pm.

Brighton Beach
10 Nathan Frost

The beach at the Brighton end of the boardwalk is a wonderful place to be. There is a diverse mix of people, including Russophones and other Eastern Europeans, creating a lively atmosphere. As you move westward, the beach becomes more peaceful and relaxing. The entertainment provided by various performers and the opportunity to people-watch is endless. There are plenty of uniformed first responders and national park rangers on hand to ensure safety and deal with any emergencies. I didn't have any children with me, so I didn't visit the amusement park or ride the carousel. However, I am looking forward to the possibility of bringing my grandchildren here one day.

Fort Tilden Beach

Walking along Fort Tilden Beach was absolutely fantastic! The beach offers both a fishing area and an optional clothing section. Although I was eager to locate the impressive fort depicted in the pictures, I was unsure of its exact whereabouts or how to reach it. All I managed to catch a glimpse of was the back of a metallic structure. Nonetheless, it was definitely worth the visit.

Gunnison Beach
8 Z X.

This beach is truly beautiful, however, I have only visited during the winter season when the amenities are closed. The distance from the parking lot and facilities to the beach can be quite a trek, but the reward is finding some lovely shells, especially for the New Jersey area. One perk of visiting in January or February is the lack of crowds. While the old bunkers add a cool element to the scenery, unfortunately, they are not accessible to visitors. Additionally, this beach is a fantastic location for observing birds.

Jacob Riis Park Beach

This particular beach boasts a pristine and stunning environment, complete with vigilant security measures and a welcoming atmosphere for the LGBTQ community. While there may be a slight disturbance to the peaceful ambiance due to some music, it is still a far cry from the noise pollution commonly found at other beaches. However, it is advised to avoid bringing children to this specific area of the beach.
