150 W. Bay Drive, Long Beach.
516 208-6136
Indoors - Located in Long Beach, Long Island.
Typical full sized rink.
The facility was recently renovated but it seemed the same as our last visit in 2000 - perhaps something in the infrastructure has been modernized.
The ice was smooth and well maintained.
However, the ice was not resurfaced in the middle of the session as it was
during our last visit to this rink.
This was probably because it wasn’t very crowded in this session.
One neat feature of this rink is the "Sticks and Pucks" session.
This is a public session where you can don your hockey gear
and get some ice time - not many rinks offer this.
Along one side of the rink is a bleacher
type seating area where you can keep an eye on things if you are not skating.
There is a snack bar, pro shop, vending machines, and an arcade.
Coin lockers cost 50 cents.
Rental hockey and figure skates are available
as well as skate gliders for young beginners.
The rink is within walking distance of the
Long Beach
station on the
LIRR.
Next to the rink is a fishing pier and a public park.
The beach is also nearby.
There is ample free parking.
