Riis Park Beach is New York's historic gay beach. It's been a social & cruising spot for queer New Yorkers since the 1940s and is still going strong.

When the weather is good, you can the vibrant gay scene.  It's like a gay nightclub, only it's a beach in New York. What's not to like?

You'll find it in Queens along the Rockaway Peninsula. The gay section is at the eastern end of the beach.

Coronavirus Update

Still a premiere gay beach experience. Be advised that social distancing is (hurrah!) being enforced. You'll still love it.
