Yes: the Coney Island Beach. And Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to the east. And the Sea Gate beaches to the west, but those are private beaches belonging to the Sea Gate gated community.
The whole area is a peninsula, so it is surrounded by beaches.

Steeplechase burned down in 1907; Dreamland burned down in 1911; Luna Park burned down in 1944. Astroland was the last amusement park in operation on Coney Island. It opened in 1962.

Why is Coney Island called an island?
Because it once was. Now it is a peninsula. It was separated from the rest of Long Island by a narrow creek, called Coney Island Creek. The center of the creek (the part that separated Coney Island from mainland Long Island) was filled in sometime in the early 20th century, turning Coney Island into a peninsula.
