Midland Beach is a popular Staten Island sandy beach with wonderful views of the Verrazzano Bridge. One of its most famous attractions is the sea turtle fountain, which kids love and run through endlessly. Besides the kids’ playground, the beach park also offers handball and shuffleboard courts. The Franklin D. Roosevelt Boardwalk is shared with South Beach next door, making it easy to go from one beach to another. While the boardwalk is great for walking, biking, or rollerblading, the beach is great for kayaking, swimming, or fishing off the Ocean Breeze Fishing Pier. A seniors’ park on the beach has chess tables, bocce courts, and a number of benches.
