Coney Island And Little Odessa Photography Tour
6 h
About this activity
Yes, Coney Island is a public beach in New York City (on the Atlantic Ocean) with a boardwalk and an amusement park! It has a very colorful history in real life as well as in literature (The Great Gatsby) and film (Annie Hall and He's Got Game.) It is fabulous to visit and to photograph both in the summer when its crowded and in the winter as well. Little Odessa at Brighton Beach (which adjoins with Coney Island) is a wonderful Ukrainian/Russian neighborhood with lots of little shops and the main street is under an elevated train. We will tour both the beach and the surrounding neighborhoods.
In June, Coney Island hosts the annual Mermaid Parade and on July 4th is the annual hot dog eating contest. In the months November-April on Sundays is the Polar Bear Swim with their big celebration on January 1st. I do tours of these events. Reserve early as they get booked quickly in advance.
This is a private tour and the cost is $300 for a group up to 4 people. You can choose to be met at your hotel or meet in a designated location.
Tour Suggestions are a sample of some of the possible places of my tours with the length of time and cost included. My tours are designed for those who want to discover New York City, with or without camera. Included are historical, architectural and cultural information about the city. As well, suggestions are offered about how to get around town or other places you might want to visit while you’re here. Photos documenting your tour can also be included.
For photo tours (beginners to advanced,) assistance is provided on camera use, techniques and photographic opportunities. Genres include (but are not limited to) urban landscapes, graffiti and street photography.
I specialize in customized tours to suit your specific interests and any of the sample tours can be modified or we can start from scratch. Tours range from 4 hours to multiple days (discounts apply) depending on what you would like to achieve and the amount of time that you have.
