Brooklyn By The Sea

 July 29th 2009

The neighborhoods of Sheepshead Bay, Brighton Beach, Coney Island, Sea Gate and Manhattan Beach are all located right on or are surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean.

According to Jeff Grandis, a lifelong resident of Brooklyn and a Brooklyn Real Estate Broker ” For a truly relaxing,fun,historic,interesting and delicious experience every New Yorker or tourist should visit these Brooklyn neighborhoods.”

Sheepshead Bay is the New York version of Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco. Sheepshead Bay has both fishing and party boats depart from the piers going out to sea morning and night. Restaurants, clubs,shops and expensive condominiums abound.

Brighton Beach is the mecca of Russian culture in Brooklyn. Brighton Beach Avenue is a wonderland of specialty food markets, cafes, nightclubs and restaurants. The boardwalk stretches for several miles along the beaches of Brighton Beach and Coney Island ending at Sea Gate, Brooklyn’s oldest gated community.
