About Rockaway Beach 67th

Rockaway Beach 67th Street is New York City's most accessible surf break, offering consistent waves within subway reach of Manhattan. The jetty-influenced peaks provide more shape than open beach breaks, and the sandbars can get surprisingly good. It's crowded and urban, but the convenience and community keep surfers coming back. When hurricanes or nor'easters hit, Rockaway can punch well above its weight.
