The Fire Island NY Guide

“Ocean Beach is one of the best communities to visit. Great beaches and tons to do. Three grocery stores that deliver, many restaurants and clubs to choose from.”

“Best place on earth! Grew up in Ocean Bay Park. Still remember crawling around in diapers. I'd never trade those memories for anything. Will be making new ones with my wife in a few weeks.”

“Growing up in Bayshore, I used to take the ferry to the ocean beach in the 70s!! I went this week to Atlantique and Ocean Beach. Wow!! Beautiful sand—miles of it!! It’s still amazing after all these years.”

“I've been to Fire Island a few times now, and each time it is and has been great! I got to see my brother who works there and the officers my father worked with. There’s plenty to do, and the community is wonderful.”

“Absolutely the best place for rest, partying, beach, and clubs. I call it Paradise Island and have been going to Cherry Grove for 30 years.”

“Even on the hottest days, it still is the coolest place to be! Simple, but full of fun with friends and family!”

“Beautiful beaches and a lovely time with friends and nature are highlights of every trip to Fire Island. I try to go out a few times every summer.”

“Fire Island is so unique. The Island's Sunken Forest is a rare ecological community only found behind well-established sand dunes along the Atlantic coast.”

“It really was a great day. I can't believe I've never been to Fire Island before, and I've lived so near here my entire life!”
