Point o' Woods Fire Island NY 🔥🏖 walking tour from the Great South Bay New York USA 2021 4K video
Point o' Woods Fire Island NY 🔥🏖 walking tour from the Great South Bay New York USA 2021 4K video
Point O' Woods is a hamlet that consists of a private vacation retreat on Fire Island, New York, in Suffolk County. Although it resembles a village or small town, with services such as a ferry port, a general store, church and fire department, the private community is open exclusively to members and their guests, who are the only persons allowed in through the hamlet's gate, or allowed to use the private ferry that runs to Point O' Woods from Bay Shore on Long Island.
Point O Woods feels like another century, and residents here guard their privacy. This stunning community borders Ocean Bay Park on the west and a stretch of open National Seashore to the east. Ferries leave from Bay Shore
Fire Island runs from Democrat Point / Fire Island Inlet in the west to Moriches Inlet / Cupsoque Beach in the east.
Fire Island is 31 miles long and 2 - 3 blocks wide and is comprised of about 20 distinct communities
Neighboring Long Island is 118 miles long
The name of Fire Island first appeared on a deed in 1789
***
1863 Fire Island separates from Jones Beach
There was a time when Fire Island was connected to Jones Beach Island, a single island stretching 60 miles from Jones Beach to South Hampton. The Fire Island Inlet naturally formed in 1863, and was later expanded through manpower, once over 9 miles wide before shrinking to its current width.
***
1931 Fire Island separates from Southampton
A 1931 Nor’easter caused the formation of the Moriches inlet and resulting in the separation of Southampton and Fire Island. Local efforts have protected eastern Fire Island with a series of jetties that have interrupted the longshore drift of sand from east to west which is blamed for the beach erosion.
***
Pelican Island
Pelican Island is an island in Suffolk County. Pelican Island is close to Otis Pike Fire Island High Dune Wilderness.
***
Hurricane Sandy
Hurricane Sandy (unofficially referred to as Superstorm Sandy) was the deadliest, the most destructive, and the strongest hurricane of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season. The storm inflicted nearly $70 billion (2012 USD) in damage. Sandy was a Category 3 storm at its peak intensity when it made landfall in Cuba. While it was a Category 2 hurricane off the coast of the Northeastern United States, the storm became the largest Atlantic hurricane on record as measured by diameter, with tropical-storm-force winds spanning 1,150 miles (1,850 km).
Hurricane Sandy was referred to as “Superstore Sandy because it had lost some of the traits needed to call it a hurricane. Sandy developed as an ordinary hurricane in the Caribbean, but as it moved up the East Coast and encountered cooler air and water, it began to loose its tropical characteristics. Hurricane Sandy was no longer a hurricane when it made land fall on Fire Island which is why it is also called Superstorm Sandy. The October 2012 storm generated the highest storm tide ever recorded in New York, reaching to nearly 14 feet in height, about 9 feet of which was from storm surge.

Saltaire Village Fire Island NY 🔥🏖 walking tour from the Great South Bay ferry marina New York USA
Saltaire Village Fire Island NY 🔥🏖 walking tour from the Great South Bay ferry marina New York USA 🇺🇸
The Village of Saltaire is a family community, upscale and elegant, yet casual, friendly and relaxed. There are no share rentals allowed and the vibe is low key and tranquil.
Incorporated in 1917, the architecture of this magnificent village varies from the original 1940’s “Coffey” houses with their distinctive arched windows and screened in front porches to Thomas Moore’s sleek, modern homes and the classic, comfortable beach cottage.
Every street is beautiful on Saltaire’s tree lined wooden boardwalks. The hook-shaped curve of the land created the Clam Pond, a wildlife refuge where herons wade for clams and the neighborhood hawk has her nest.
Saltaire is a throwback to a gentler time. The wooden boardwalks under canopies of trees take you through vintage cottages and ultra modern homes on your way from the bay to the ocean. This is a family village where kids (and adults) leave their shoes home and feel free. Explore this beautiful, serene village.
Saltaire is a village on Fire Island in the southern part of the Town of Islip in Suffolk County, New York, United States. The year-round population was 37 at the 2010 census, which, as a summer beach community, increases many times over in the summer.
Fire Island runs from Democrat Point / Fire Island Inlet in the west to Moriches Inlet / Cupsoque Beach in the east.

Fire Island Pines 🔥🏖🌲 Labor Day Weekend FIP New York USA 🇺🇸 September 4th 2021
Fire Island Pines 🔥🏖🌲 Labor Day Weekend FIP New York USA summer 2021 4K night video
Fire Island Pines (often referred to as The Pines, simply Pines, or FIP) is a hamlet in the Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County, New York, United States. It is located on Fire Island, a barrier island on the southern side of Long Island.
Fire Island Pines and the adjoining Cherry Grove are the areas most strongly associated with the gay community on Fire Island. The island has been referred to as America's first gay and lesbian town and served since the 1920s and 1930s as a refuge for vacationers and others who desired the more liberal attitude the island's occupants allowed.
The Pines, which has the most expensive real estate on Fire Island, has approximately 600 houses and a 100-unit condominium complex on its square mile of location. It has two-thirds of the swimming pools on Fire Island. Its summer seasonal population is between 2,500 and 3,000. In 2004, 12 people listed it as their full-time residence.
The Pines: Understated Elegance
As you enter the U-shaped harbor, you are surrounded by sophistication. Yachts float beside crafts of all sizes and in the daytime, residents go about their shopping and dining in the “downtown” area of the Pines. Wooden “roller coaster” boardwalks wind their way through luxurious, lavish, private homes. There are more pools in The Pines than anywhere else on the Island.
Fire Island Pines is home to the gay community as has an understated elegance. Their next door neighbor is Cherry Grove, Fire island’s other LGBQ town. Residents are very active in their community, hosting many cultural events and fundraisers all season long.

Water Island
While Water Island might make you think it is a separate landmass, this is not the case. Water Island is a small, extremely private Fire Island beach community comprised of about 50 houses on modest plots of Fire Island real estate. With Davis Park to the East and Barrett Beach to the west, Water Island is far from the Fire Island beach civilization, creating a sense of privacy that is well-appreciated by its residents.
As early as 1878 a restaurant called the Pavilion existed where Water Island is today. It was run by a man named Richard Silsbee. During the 1890s Water Island was home to the prestigious White House Hotel, a pleasant example of beach hotel architecture designed by Edward Ryder and frequented by Theodore Roosevelt and his family. Caldwell Realty opened the areas up to residential development in 1912. The isolation of Water Island made it an ideal destination for rumrunners during the prohibition era.
Many coastal areas on Long Island and Fire Island share in this heritage, and as Fire Island has a legacy of wreckers and land pirates, this was not so great a leap—yet Water Island is perhaps the quintessential example of such an outpost. For a great many years, the residents of Water Island did not have even the most basic services. It was one of the last Fire Island communities to connect to the Long Island Power Authority grid. Prior to that, access to the nearest stores or restaurants required a mile-long hike to either Fire Island Pines or Davis Park. For many years there was no ferry service as well, only private boat access. However now a minimal ferry schedule out of Sayville, NY, finally exists.
Fire Island runs from Democrat Point / Fire Island Inlet in the west to Moriches Inlet / Cupsoque Beach in the east.

Ocean Bay Park Fire Island NY 🔥🏖 walking tour vegetation plants along Great South Bay New York USA
Ocean Bay Park, AKA “The Park” is a popular destination for Long Islanders to come for the day and play. Fire Islanders join them to have a few beers and dance to live music at Flynn’s or Schooners. The mood here is relaxed and let it be. The town is diverse, inclusive and just a little quirky in a very nice way. Day Trippers and residents get along just fine. This is a “yes” kind of town. Ferries leave from Bay Shore.
Ocean Bay Park is a hamlet in the Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County, New York, United States. It is located on Fire Island, a barrier island separated from the southern side of Long Island by the Great South Bay. To reach Ocean Bay Park, one must take a ferry or water taxi from Bay Shore.
Housing includes group houses and family homes. Nightlife and full-service restaurants include Flynn's (which also has a 50-boat marina) and the Schooner Inn.
Ocean Bay Park was once filled with college and recently graduated young people, but has since shifted to a more family friendly community. The community has always been home to many somewhat older affluent home owners who enjoy the laid back beauty of Fire Island with family and friends.
The residents of Ocean Bay Park have a history of being on the forefront of social change. On September 2, 1967 Dr. Martin Luther King was the guest of honor at a cocktail party held by Mr. and Mrs. Hyman Abbott as a fundraiser for his work. Earlier that day Dr. King spoke about community, the war in Vietnam, anti-Semitism and the need for a third political party. 1,500 residents attended that rally in Seaview.
Fire Island runs from Democrat Point / Fire Island Inlet in the west to Moriches Inlet / Cupsoque Beach in the east.
Fire Island is 31 miles long and 2 - 3 blocks wide and is comprised of about 20 distinct communities
Neighboring Long Island is 118 miles long
The name of Fire Island first appeared on a deed in 1789

1863 Fire Island separates from Jones Beach
There was a time when Fire Island was connected to Jones Beach Island, a single island stretching 60 miles from Jones Beach to South Hampton. The Fire Island Inlet naturally formed in 1863, and was later expanded through manpower, once over 9 miles wide before shrinking to its current width.

1931 Fire Island separates from Southampton
A 1931 Nor’easter caused the formation of the Moriches inlet and resulting in the separation of Southampton and Fire Island. Local efforts have protected eastern Fire Island with a series of jetties that have interrupted the longshore drift of sand from east to west which is blamed for the beach erosion.

Hurricane Sandy
Hurricane Sandy (unofficially referred to as Superstorm Sandy) was the deadliest, the most destructive, and the strongest hurricane of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season. The storm inflicted nearly $70 billion (2012 USD) in damage. Sandy was a Category 3 storm at its peak intensity when it made landfall in Cuba. While it was a Category 2 hurricane off the coast of the Northeastern United States, the storm became the largest Atlantic hurricane on record as measured by diameter, with tropical-storm-force winds spanning 1,150 miles (1,850 km).
Hurricane Sandy was referred to as “Superstore Sandy because it had lost some of the traits needed to call it a hurricane. Sandy developed as an ordinary hurricane in the Caribbean, but as it moved up the East Coast and encountered cooler air and water, it began to loose its tropical characteristics. Hurricane Sandy was no longer a hurricane when it made land fall on Fire Island which is why it is also called Superstorm Sandy. The October 2012 storm generated the highest storm tide ever recorded in New York, reaching to nearly 14 feet in height, about 9 feet of which was from storm surge.

Smith Point County Park is a beachfront park facing the Atlantic Ocean on the east end of Fire Island, along the central south shore of Long Island, near Shirley, New York, United States. It is the largest park owned by Suffolk County.
The park derives its name from Smith Point, a peninsula on the Long Island mainland that extends into Bellport Bay. The peninsula was named for William Tangier Smith, who in the 17th century owned 50 miles (80 km) of ocean-front property in the Manor of St. George. The park does not own the Smith Point peninsula.
Smith Point Park, located on the barrier island of Fire Island, is a haven for sportsmen, surfers and beach lovers.

Sunken Forest 🌳 Sailors Haven Fire Island NY 🔥🏖 walking tour preview New York USA 2021 4K night video
Fire Island's Sunken Forest is a rare ecological community. This type of maritime holly forest is found behind well-established sand dunes along the Atlantic coast from New Jersey to Massachusetts. According to the New York Natural Heritage Program, the Sunken Forest was ranked as globally rare, meaning there are few remaining occurrences of this assemblage of plants throughout the world.
Today you can easily visit and explore this rare habitat from May to October, when ferries run from Sayville on Long Island to Sailors Haven. Throughout the year you may stroll along the boardwalk, although facilities (restrooms) and other services are not available when ferry service is not operating.
The process of succession leading to a climax forest stage can take thousands of years, but most likely took around 300 years in the Sunken Forest.
Sometime between 200 and 300 years ago the site of the Sunken Forest was an area of bare, windblown sand. But, it was soon invaded by the seeds of pioneering dune plants, like beach grass.
Woolly beachheather and seaside goldenrod were probably the next plants to grow in this area. These plants not only pioneered, but helped stabilize the habitat
Sailor’s Haven is a wonderfully remote location on Fire Island that should not be missed. It has a 42 slip marina, a snack bar, picnic area, and visitor center. Visitors may find National Seashore Rangers in the area ready to provide interesting information about the foliage and wild life of Fire Island.
Sailor’s Haven is also home to the majestic Sunken Forest. The Sunken Forest is one of the last remaining maritime forests on the eastern seaboard. This peaceful forest consists of approximately forty acres of American Holly, Sassafras, and Shadblow with meandering boardwalks. Sunken Forest’s name is derived from the fact it is sunken behind the sand dunes that protect it from the harsh Atlantic winds, but often is mistaken to be below sea level.
Fire Island runs from Democrat Point / Fire Island Inlet in the west to Moriches Inlet / Cupsoque Beach in the east.

Cherry Grove (often referred to locally as The Grove) is a hamlet in the Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County, New York, United States. It is located on Fire Island, a barrier island separated from the southern side of Long Island by the Great South Bay. The hamlet has approximately 300 houses on 41 acres (170,000 m2), a summer seasonal population of 2,000 and a year-round population of 15.
Cherry Grove, along with nearby Fire Island Pines, is considered one of the most popular lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT)-accepting resort communities in the United States. The New York Times quoted one homeowner at Cherry Grove that, this is a wonderful environment where you could be gay and open and hold hands and enjoy life....
In 2013, the Cherry Grove Community House and Theatre was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, one of only a few sites so far listed for their role in American LGBT history.
The founding philosophy of Cherry Grove is to be place to “Be Yourself.” The LGBTQ community comes here to enjoy the beach and the infamous nightlife. Every 4th of July, a ferryboat load of Drag Queens “Invade the Pines” and much merriment ensues. They also host the Miss Fire Island Contest at summer’s end and the Community Theater productions are top notch. Come to the Grove and be your happiest self. The Grove is a wet T-Shirt contest kind of town. Ferries leave from Sayville
The Grove is the wilder side of the gay scene and people feel free to be themselves here.
The dense foliage creates canopies over the roller coaster boardwalks. The homes, like everything in The Grove, have a sense of humor.
The downtown area and bay front has lots of shops and restaurants. Cherry Grove has one of the only two oceanfront restaurants on Fire Island.
Fire Island runs from Democrat Point / Fire Island Inlet in the west to Moriches Inlet / Cupsoque Beach in the east.
