Group of us from Brooklyn are going out there to the beach on Saturday, we hear parking can be pain. We all have small kids so we can get there early, any parking tips would be greatly appreciated! Also anywhere to watch World Cup for some of the group that are soccer fans, France Argentina is at 10 (I am assuming the 2pm game won’t be an issue finding a bar or restaurant open). Thanks in advance
Parking? Get there by 9 you should be fine
And like the last poster said, I would check out the West End (Beach House, Speakeasy, Cabana...) or you could go to Brix and Barley or JJ Coopers. Those last two are a little farther from the beach and located more centrally on Park Avenue so you could have an easier time getting parking.
If you're going in the water, be careful of the riptide
