ay Shore is the gateway to the Fire Island National Seashore, a beautiful strip of land thirty-five miles long, just a short ferry ride across the bay.

The crown jewel of the area, the Bay Shore Marina is one of the largest publicly owned marinas on the East Coast. From here and many adjacent points, residents have access to endless nautical enjoyment throughout the year. Renowned boat shows and fishing tournaments are hosted here.

With its close proximity to both Robert Moses Beach and Jones Beach, a warm summer day will find families throughout Bay Shore flocking to the soft sands and refreshing cool waters that gently caress the shores of a modern, nautical community situated just minutes from the renowned, sea-scaped beaches of Fire Island.

Pleasure fisherman abound on the plentiful docks as well as on bay and ocean charter crafts. They are searching for their catch of tasty flounder, fluke and bass. Commercial baymen make their living on the sea as they have for generations. Public launching ramps and abundant dock space, both public and private, paint the waterfront landscape.

Residents have access to bay and ocean beaches as well as thousands of acres of neighboring parkland and wildlife conservation preserves.
