Timeline
16:03
Grab a slice of pizza from Rosebank Pizza. It is open until 22:00, so you have plenty of time before the evening rush.
16:43
Walk to Matthew J. Buono Beach. It is a short walk from the pizza place. This small park on Hylan Boulevard offers a clear view of New York Harbor. The sun sets toward the WSW, which aligns with the water view from this shorefront spot.
17:23
Head to Bay Street Tavern for a drink. It is located near the landmark area and is open until 02:00 on weekdays. The evening light will be gone, but the atmosphere is perfect for winding down after the sunset.
Local tip
The walk from the pizza place to the beach is short, but the beach is exposed. Bring a light layer as the wind off the harbor picks up after sunset.
