Fire Island
New York, United States
Fire Island is a 32-mile-long barrier island off the southern coast of Long Island, New York, separated from Long Island by the Great South Bay.
It features sandy beaches, dunes, maritime forests, and wetlands, making it a popular summer destination with several small communities and two villages. Cars are generally not allowed on most parts of the island, so visitors get around by foot, bike, or ferry, which adds to its peaceful, natural atmosphere. The island provides critical protection for the mainland against ocean storms and supports diverse ecosystems.
A portion of the island is preserved as Fire Island National Seashore, which includes beaches, nature trails, and the historic Fire Island Lighthouse. The island’s shape has changed over time due to natural forces, and it is a favored spot for outdoor recreation and wildlife observation near the New York metropolitan area.
