Coney Island Boardwalk — Off Season, On Purpose

What creators say

  • “coney island in october, november, or any overcast tuesday is one of the most cathartic places in new york city — the atlantic ocean is loud and indifferent, the boardwalk is nearly empty, the rides are shut down, the seagulls are chaotic, and the combination of salt air and wide open gray sky produces a specific emotional environment that reviewers who visit in the off-season describe as 'a feeling of nostalgia and magic' and 'bringing back memories' in a way that hits differently than the summer version. the Q or D train to coney island-stillwell avenue, 45 minutes from midtown, accessible 6am–1am — it's the end of the line on the subway and it feels exactly like that in the best way.”
