New York Aquarium Directions - Subway, Bus, Parking, Rideshare

The boardwalk location is transit-friendly with classic Coney Island vibes on arrival.

Subway

• Multiple lines serve Coney Island–Stillwell Ave; it’s a short walk to the aquarium.
• Weekends can mean track work — check service changes.

Navigation: Follow boardwalk signs; ocean-side paths are stroller-friendly.

Driving & Rideshare

• Arrive early on peak beach days.
• Plan for added exit time after major events or perfect beach weather.

Parking tips:

• Check local lots’ day rates vs. hourly.
• Consider a drop-off near the entrance, then park.

Tip: If the boardwalk is your next stop, exit via the ocean side to avoid backtracking.
