Coney Island Creek is an important ecosystem right here in our community. This is your chance to be a scientist for the day! Come help us explore the wildlife and ecology of the creek, to improve our understanding of the creek and to help guide its restoration to a healthy, vibrant, and safe ecosystem, volunteers will have the opportunity to assist in data collection alongside the New York Aquarium's field research team and other local experts from around New York City.
Join us as we survey species from plankton to mammals and everything in between. Come visit this space soon for more information.

Assemblymember Mathylde Frontus, and others, will provide important updates on the Coney Island ferry project and other creek-related news. Find out what the City hasn’t told you!
After the City’s contractor was caught violating numerous permit safety requirements, work on the proposed Coney Island ferry landing at the fishing pier in Kaiser Park was stopped in late 2021 by New York State who fined the City $70,000. Construction of the ferry landing is not finished and ferry service hasn’t even begun yet! The City is set to resume work after June 2022. What should be done to protect and help our community moving forward?
Bring a neighbor. Bring a friend. All are welcome.
