Pebble Beach in DUMBO, Brooklyn

Pebble Beach, located within Brooklyn Bridge Park, is a unique urban retreat offering breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline, framed by the iconic Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges. This picturesque spot, located on the easternmost part of Brooklyn Bridge Park, has become a must-see destination for both locals and tourists seeking a moment of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of the city.

Unlike conventional sandy beaches, Pebble Beach features a rocky shore along the East River, offering a different kind of beach experience that focuses more on enjoying the view than swimming. The rocky nature of the beach evokes the feeling of a small-town beach in Maine or the Canadian Maritimes, but with the spectacular backdrop of New York City’s skyscrapers.

The scenery is particularly magical at sunset, with the changing colors of the sky adding to the beauty of the cityscape.
