Fire Island National Seashore

Immerse yourself in an enchanting collage of coastal life and history. Rhythmic waves, high dunes, ancient maritime forests, historic landmarks and glimpses of wildlife, Fire Island has been a special place for diverse plants, animals and people for centuries. Far from the pressure of nearby big-city life, dynamic barrier island beaches offer solitude, camaraderie, and spiritual renewal.

The Fire Island Lighthouse has been a beacon for ships since 1826.

Backcountry Camping in the Otis Pike High Dune Wilderness; Watch Hill Campground

Use a designated campsite that permits your vehicle and equipment. Check the individual campground maximum lengths, access, generator rules and food-storage requirements; a parking area is not permission to sleep overnight.
