Best Street Markets in Long Beach

"For those into partying, you’ll still want to walk the High Line, experience Greenwich Village as well as explore Chelsea, which has some of New York’s best nightlife. Walk the Highline for an amazing view of Manhattan’s skyline from above in a modern green space that used to be train tracks. The Highline is a public park that spans quite a few blocks, so give yourself at least an hour if you come here to enjoy the views!"

The Brooklyn Flea is a popular gathering with hundreds of vendors selling just about everything from vintage clothing and furnishings to collectibles, jewelry, and work by local artisans."

"There were ramen burgers, lobster rolls, chicken and waffles, bubble waffles and ice cream, so much more.” See all Williamsburg Smorgasburg - Saturday reviews"

"Your best strategy at this huge, jam-packed Saturday market is to do a walk-through first. Check out all the stands to see who has the juiciest pears and apples that day (you can usually sample the fruit), and which fall root vegetables are calling your name (snowy parsnips! bulbous rutabaga! pink turnips!). Before you’re done, pick up heritage pork from Flying Pigs Farm and fragrant herbs from Lavender by the Bay."

"Nothing says “Spring” quite like a hybrid food-and-flea-market right on the waterfront. If you get thirsty while shopping for knick-knacks, head to the beer garden to get some locally brewed beer while a DJ spins some sick tunes. Sat - Sun 10 am - 6 pm / 5-25 46th Av."

"Central Park The perfect way to relax in the city and leave the crowds behind is to spend the day in Central Park. It’s free, there are lots of paths to walk (or run), bike lanes, lakes to row in, and a zoo. Since the park covers over 150 square blocks, it’s easy to spend hours wandering around.

A portion of the output goes to a local soup kitchen across the street."
