Manhattan Beach Park

This beach on Brooklyn's southern tip is a popular summertime destination for people from all over New York City. As the weather heats up, families pack picnic baskets and come out to barbeque, loll on the sand, and swim in the waves. Bookended by playgrounds, and with two large baseball diamonds on its eastern border, as well as tennis, volleyball, basketball, and handball, this park has plenty of room for all types of active outdoor fun.
