Apartments for Rent in Long Beach, NY

Occupying the entire central section of the barrier island it shares a name with, Long Beach is a dynamic and diverse waterfront city just off the South Shore of Long Island. Nicknamed the "City by the Sea" for its blend of urban streetscapes and apartment buildings with nearby beaches and boardwalks, Long Beach presents a unique renting opportunity outside Long Island and the greater New York City area. Locals and visitors head to the beach and Long Beach Boardwalk to soak up the sun during the warmer months of the year and enjoy amazing views of the water year-round. Park Avenue and Broadway are where you will find the largest concentrations of restaurants and shops. Open-air dining and local watering holes are always buzzing with tourists and long-time residents. You'll find seafood, tacos, crepes, and more within walking distance of the beach. Rentals in Long Beach reflect its waterfront location. You won't find many houses on stilts here; instead, there is a mix of historic homes and new developments on traditional grass lawns and narrow streets. Head closer to the water for more "traditional" looking beach rentals and apartments ranging from relatively affordable to upscale.
