Views from a quaint shore house? Try a Rockaway apartment (The Beach House via Compass) Views from a quaint shore house? Try a Rockaway apartment (The Beach House via Compass)
Between the low coronavirus infection rate and strong vaccination numbers, New York City’s public beaches are able to open for Memorial Day weekend starting Saturday, May 29. Lifeguards will be on duty from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, and swimming is strictly prohibited outside these hours. Mayor de Blasio announced that the city would continue to follow health guidelines at the beaches, and added, “Stay cool, stay safe, and have fun!”

Coney Island, Manhattan Beach, and Rockaway Beach are among the locations that put a day at the beach just a subway ride away for New Yorkers. However, some lucky residents are able to enjoy water views all year round. Below, see a selection of listings with views of the Atlantic Ocean or New York Harbor.
