Ocean Beach, just a short water taxi ride down the bay, is a beach village filled with restaurants, bars and shops. We love taking a trip to Ocean Beach when we visit the Island. See below for information on how to order a water taxi! Fire Island Water Taxi: 631-665-8885, pay by cash on the boat. Or purchase water taxi ticket via “FI mTickets” app.
The tallest lighthouse on Long Island, the Fire Island lighthouse stands at the Western end of the Island. The walk from Kismet is about 1 mile. Once there, explore the nature trail which consists of raised boardwalks that take you through the wind swept dunes and open up to a secluded bay side beach with beautiful views. If you’re feeling like a climb (182 steps to be exact), you can see the New York City Skyline on a clear day from the gallery platform. Stop inside the gift shop for a souvenir!
