Gansevoort Peninsula

This was an unexpected stop after noticing a beach in NYC! No cost! Wouldn't go in the water but a great place to enjoy the sand and sun. Plenty of grass space too. Nice views, picnic tables, and a sprayer to cool off. Pack a cooler or visit the outdoor bar located just outside.

I simply love this place when I visited back in October & November 2023! Such a calm place to just unwind and reflect after a long day or week or life. Glad to have played some pick up soccer a few times as well!

The beach has finally come to Manhattan and it is AWESOME!! Bring your towel and don't plan to swim but enjoy the clean sand, sturdy umbrellas and Adirondack chairs--abd walk a short .25 mile to an amazing food court at Pier 57!! Lucky to be a beach-loving Manhattanite☺️

Wow! Did not know that NY City had a place like this. Loved the sand area and playground with a small water park like. Love watching kids enjoying themselves.

This place is a nice public park 🏞️ and beachfront! 🏖️ The Gansevoort Peninsula is a newly opened waterfront 🌊 outdoor space with sand ⛱️ and seating! 🪑 It includes a athletic 👟 field. 🏑 This spot has a fantastic view 🪟 of the City 🏙️ and is the perfect spot to unwind 🧘‍♂️ and relax! 😌 I wish I came here more often!

What a great spot! Features 5.5 acres of spectacular waterfront views, a beach (they brought in 1200 tons of sand!) a soccer field, dog park, outdoor gym, and a giant row of lounge chairs situated perfectly to watch the sunset 🌆

Really looking forward to this portion of Hudson River Park being completed. It will, I believe be the last large chunk with expansive pieces of public space. I'm most looking forward to the beach landing area for kayaks and paddle boards as I'm a year-round paddler and guide. This will be a great new stop, either as a destination or a stop along other tours.
