Coney Island Creek, Tidal inlet in Brooklyn, United States.
Coney Island Creek extends 1.8 miles from Gravesend Bay to Shell Road, forming a natural boundary between mainland Brooklyn and Coney Island.
The creek transformed from a natural salt marsh estuary covering 3,000 acres in the 1800s to an industrial waterway through land filling and development.
Four public parks along the shoreline provide spaces for local communities to engage in fishing, nature observation, and environmental education activities.
The waterway requires ongoing cleanup efforts to address industrial contamination and maintain water quality for recreational activities and wildlife preservation.
The creek contains a collection of abandoned vessels, including the Quester I submarine, forming an underwater museum of maritime artifacts.
