Fishers Island, Island community in Suffolk County, New York, United States
Fishers Island extends 14 kilometers along Long Island Sound, featuring residential areas, golf courses, beaches, and natural coastal landscapes throughout its territory.
The Lenape people originally inhabited this land, naming it Paggank due to the numerous nut-bearing trees found across the island territory.
The island maintains seasonal traditions through community gatherings, local art exhibitions, and maritime activities that connect residents with their coastal heritage.
Transportation to Fishers Island requires careful planning as access is limited to ferry services departing from Connecticut and New York mainland ports.
The island population fluctuates between seasons, with 300 year-round residents expanding to several thousand during summer months when second homeowners return.
