Why You’ll Love It
Coney Island may be synonymous with circus performers and the controversial freak shows of the early 19th century, but it's become so much more than that over the last century. Visitors can now enjoy the historic amusement parks that have been lovingly brought back to life, the iconic boardwalk filled with the smells of funnel cakes covered in powdered sugar, and the sandy beaches that are perfect for soaking up some sun. Coney Island also still celebrates its performative roots with the Coney Island Museum, theatrical performances, and the Mermaid Parade, which is the largest art parade in the nation.
