| FORT TILDEN BEACH |
Beach 169th St @ the Atlantic Ocean | Rockaway Peninsula, Queens
A/S - Beach 116th St, then Q22 bus - Fort Tilden | FREE | noon | all ages

DIRECTIONS BY TRAIN & BUS:
1st, follow these transit directions to Fort Tilden National Park: http://tinyurl.com/acousticue2009 [tinyurl.com] »
Then, after you get off the Q22 (or Q35) bus, walk down Beach 169th St to the ocean, turn right at the “Unsupervised Beach - no lifeguards” sign, walk along the beach past 5 breakwaters. We will either be there or will have a sign posted there saying where to go from there.

BIKING / DRIVING DIRECTIONS:
simply take Flatbush Avenue away from Downtown Brooklyn, until it crosses Jamaica Bay on the Marine Parkway Bridge, and ends at the Rockaways. Left exit to Rockaway Point Blvd and turn right onto Rockaway Point Blvd / Beach Channel Dr / Rockaway Breezy Blvd. You will immediately see Beach 169th St. Lock up or park there (or as close as you can get), and follow the after-the-bus walking directions from above.

NOTE: the nearest grocery is at the train-to-bus transfer at Beach 116th St. Don’t forget to buy sunscreen, food to BBQ, charcoal, beverages, etc. While it is a National Park and not an NYC Parks Dept park, and things are considerably more lax than on city beaches, open container is still frowned upon. Bring cups.

IN CASE OF RAIN: If this gets rained out we’ll reschedule for the following Sunday, June 21st. Check TODDPNYC.COM @ 11am day of show for an update if you’re afraid it might be rained out.
