Cupsogue Beach County Park, County park on Atlantic Ocean in Westhampton Beach, United States.
Cupsogue Beach County Park is a county park on the Atlantic coast in Westhampton Beach that spans a large area between Fire Island and Westhampton Island. The grounds sit between the Atlantic Ocean and Moriches Bay and feature camping areas, fishing zones, and swimming spots.
The name Cupsogue comes from Native American origins and has been documented since the 17th century. The park's current shape came from a major storm in the 1930s that created Moriches Inlet and permanently changed the landscape.
The park serves as a gathering place where people swim, fish, and spend time together, especially during summer months. These everyday activities form the rhythm of how locals and visitors experience the shoreline.
The park has a pavilion with food service, restrooms, changing facilities, and a first aid station for visitors. Recreational vehicle camping is available in designated areas, making longer stays easier to arrange.
The park allows diving activities at slack tide on the bay side, where divers find interesting underwater experiences. This particular activity is less widely known but attracts visitors looking for different ways to explore.
