Pat Parlato Playground
đ Brooklyn, NY
Oceanside playground featuring three distinct play areas, summer water sprinklers, basketball and tennis courts, public restrooms, and parking - with BBQ facilities that are genuinely rare for a beach-adjacent site.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families who want a beach day and playground rolled into one - especially during summer when sprinklers run. The BBQ permission is a genuine draw for family gatherings. Shade is sparse across the site, so sun protection and timing matter. All age groups are catered for across the three play sections.

âAmazing playground. 3 different areas and lots of swings. A water fountain area too. Only complaint is there should be more trees to shade it as it gets incredibly hot but it is right next to the beach so I can overlook that.â
