Spring Is Finally Here! Here Are 10 Ways to Celebrate
Head Back Down to Coney Island and Grab a Beer at Ruby’s
Winter beach trips have a lot of undeniable charms, but if you’re like a lot of us, you haven’t set foot anywhere near Coney Island or Brighton Beach since sometime in August. It may still be too cold for a serious beach day, but it’s not too cold for a leisurely stroll to re-acquaint yourself with the ocean, the boardwalk, boardwalk snacks, and perhaps most importantly, 80-year-old Coney stalwart Ruby’s. The boardwalk’s best bar officially opens back up on April 5th, though they were also open last weekend, so keep an eye on their Twitter feed. Take in a cold beer and the sight of the ocean before all the warm weather crowds start to descend, and forget you ever even learned the term “Polar Vortex.”
