Jones Beach Theater is a premium concert venue. There is nothing like an outdoor concert on a clear warm starry July night with a balmy breeze blowing off the bay. I have attended many concerts there and the sound quality on the floor level seating is among the best you... will hear any where. It always pays to bring a jacket because it can get cool being next to the water. It seems to me that even the entertainers love playing at this theater because it shows in their performances. The crowds there are great too. Drinks and food can be expensive but that's not why you came. Pay a little extra for the floor seats. It will be well worth it.
Best Beach Within City Limits
This beach is most certainly better than Rockaway Beach. Sure it gets crowded but the sand looks as if it is maintained. I've been to beaches where there is more garbage than sand and I must say they keep Jones pretty clean. There are snack stands but if your not up ...on paying for crappy food then bring some good food in a cooler cause there are no ""real"" stores for miles.
REALLY SUCKS!
Jones Beach Theater sucks! Employees are rude and abrasive, and they take their jobs waaaaay too seriously, constantly telling patrons what to do and what NOT to do. No alcohol is served, and food/drink is extremely overpriced anyway. You can count on spending $4 for a ...normally $1 bottle of water, and sodas are $5. And don't even get me started on their rain-or-shine policy. I got rained on at two different shows, including David Bowie, whose set was cut short due to lightning, with no compensation whatsoever--and tickets were $75!! In future if I want to go to any outdoor shows, I'll stick with the Garden State Art Center in NJ.
Listen up
The easiest way is to take the LIRR out of Penn Station to Freeport Station. Then, there's a bus stop right at the station. Take the Jones Beach Shuttle (comes about every 20-30 minutes). The whole round trip costs about $11.
