 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. In fact, 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 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.
