Sleep with the fishies at the New York Aquarium!

Coney Island contains more than roller coasters, hot dogs and the beach.. you can also find the New York Aquarium right next to the Coney Island Amusement Park! The aquarium is just down the boardwalk from the food and fun or if you're coming via subway, it's just one stop before Coney. The two biggest attractions at the aquarium are the Sea Cliffs where the sea lions, penguins and walrus are found as well as the conservation hall where you can see unique fish such as the Cownose ray and Green Moray Eel. How convenient that while visiting the beach, you can look deeper into the ocean without venturing too far from the sand.
