Long Island is bordered by hundreds of miles of clean, white
sand beaches along both the ocean and the bay, surrounded by
secluded dunes, Cliffside bluffs and lighthouses. Some of the
best public beaches in the world are located on Long Island
featuring miles of boardwalks, beach trails, restaurants, picnic
areas and the most spectacular sunrises and sunsets to be found
anywhere. |

There are over 150 (one hundred and fifty) world-class beaches
operated be the state, county, town and local municipalities.
These include the famous beaches in the Hamptons, on Fire
Island, along the rocky north shore cliffs and the famous Robert
Moses State Park and Jones Beach. Jones Beach is a 2,400 acre
park which offers a six mile stretch of ocean beach, two mile
boardwalk, bay beach, pool, golf, and the concerts at the famous
outdoor marine theater. A few Long Island beaches are open only to residents, but most,
including all of the major state parks, are open to everyone.
All beaches have either a parking or entrance fee from Memorial
Day to Labor Day. |
