Kiddie Beach, also knows as Gerritsen Beach, is a local swimming hole that lies on a peninsula in Brooklyn near Marine Park and Sheepshead Bay. In addition to swimming, there are many events throughout the summer including fundraisers, basketball games, karaoke, and open mic nights. Fishing is very popular here. The beach is intended for Gerritsen Beach residents only. There are beach accesses located at the end of Hyman Court and Post Court. The Gerritsen ballfields, consisting of three baseball fields, two athletic fields for soccer or football, and one Little League field, are located on the east side of Gerritsen Avenue.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
- Passed water quality tests 60-95% of the time
