Located between Sheepshead Bay and Marine Park, Gerritsen Beach is a charming neighborhood tucked away on a peninsula in south Brooklyn. Often compared to a New England fishing village, Gerritsen Beach is brimming with old-fashioned homes clustered along narrow streets.
Gerritsen Beach is known for its close-knit community, which comes together for a wide variety of events, such as street fairs, blocks parties, and more. Recreational opportunities abound in Gerritsen Beach as well, with plenty of options for fishing, boating, and swimming. The many exciting attractions of Coney Island are also within minutes of Gerritsen Beach, including Luna Park, the New York Aquarium, and the Coney Island Beach and Boardwalk.

I like that it is a tight-knit neighborhood. Everyone looks out for each other. I would like to see more diversity and more respect for people's belongings and property.

Very quiet and not hard to find. Polite, clean and friendly neighbors. Many local beaches and parks to relax. Public buses run all hours during the day and night. Lots of restaurants. Shopping mall not far away. Everything is walking distance.
