Nice little beach out towards the end of the North Fork of Long Island. The "sand" is actually more rock so bare feet might get a bit sore. The sunsets can be incredible on the right day.

Built in 1920, this carousel is one of the few remaining with a brass ring game where rings are dispensed to riders during the ride. Riders grab the brass ring among the iron rings for a chance to win a prize from the operator. Visitors test their skills and play a 100 year old game.
