Coney Island’s Luna Park in Brooklyn, New York is a fantastic destination that the entire family can enjoy. Luna Park is home to the world famous Cyclone, which celebrated its 85th anniversary this year and has the distinction of being the most copied roller coaster ever built.

In addition to the Cyclone, the park features 21 rides that cater to every age level. Luna Park is located steps away from a variety of shops, restaurants (including the famous Nathan’s), the new and improved boardwalk and beach, the iconic Wonder Wheel, and the aquarium. It’s truly the perfect getaway for the family.
