Cyclone!!!!!

Going to the Cyclone is a necessity. Great roller coaster with old school style wooden construction and minimal engineering. So much fun.

Not Too Bad

by boobee0007 at Citysearch

Though nothing compares to Six Flags or Hershey Park. This small amusement park within the city limits is great for the kids. Adults may get bored quickly though in mid-summer there are small forms of attractions on the boardwalk (Radio Stations, Ice Cream Promos, etc.) The NY Aquarium is just next door to Coney so if you want to make a full day you can go to the Aquarium in the day and enjoy the rides in the evening. Near public transportation.

  • Pros: Kid Friendly, Aquarium Next Door
  • Cons: Not Adult Oriented, Not Large Enough
