Ponquogue Beach | Shinnecock
Fire Island is a uniquely wonderful slice of Long Island and Ocean Beach is a stunning section. The Ferry is required as there are no cars allowed in town (my favorite part!).

home to some of LI's best party fishing boats; 2 piers; bait and tackle; book ahead for a boating day trip (we recommend Island Princess or Laura Lee)
