Fire Island is located
about 45 minutes outside of New York City, just a 30 minute ferry
ride across the Great South Bay. Fire Island itself is a
barrier island that stretches over 32 miles eastward from Moriches
Inlet to Fire Island Inlet. It is a premier getaway spot for
families and friends. Fire Island offers a community for every
taste and lifestyle, from the tranquility of Lonelyville , to the
boisterous party atmosphere of Ocean Beach, to the flamboyancy of
Cherry Grove.
Fire Island has activities for
everyone, including camping, hiking, observing wildlife,
surfing, boating, and swimming, and of course, places to eat,
drink, and be happy! There are many fun and relaxing things to do
on this beautiful island, but two top attractions not to be missed
are the Sunken Forest and
the Fire Island Lighthouse.
