NYC beaches aren't like the ones you will find in the Caribbean. Here the best part about a trip to the beach is the world famous Nathan's Hot Dogs, the old amusement park rides and the Mermaid parade in the Summer. This iconic part of NYC is also surprisingly great in the winter when it is almost empty.

Beautiful gardens, but not quite as impressive as the Bronx Botanical gardens. The best time to see this Garden is in the Spring when the Cherry Blossoms are in bloom.
