With so many beaches, Long Island is a summer paradise, and I try to extend that vibe for as long as possible. So, I took advantage of the summer-like weather in NY this week and spent a day exploring on Fire Island.
Fire Island is a barrier island located off the south shore of Long Island, New York. It is a popular summer destination known for its beautiful beaches, quaint communities, and relaxed atmosphere. And its car-free environment encourages visitors to slow down and enjoy the island’s natural beauty. Whether you’re strolling on foot, pedaling a bike, or cruising on a water taxi, the absence of cars adds to the island’s relaxed and peaceful vibe, making it a popular destination for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
The island, stretching approximately 32 miles long and ranging from a quarter mile to half a mile wide, is a mosaic of several small residential communities, each with its own unique charm and character. From the lively Ocean Beach to the artistic Cherry Grove and the serene Davis Park.
The island is a unique and charming destination that offers a plethora of activities for everyone. Whether you’re looking to relax on the beach, explore the island’s natural beauty, or immerse yourself in the vibrant nightlife, Fire Island has it all.
