Jones Beach State Park

Jones Beach State Park extends for 10.5 kilometers along the Atlantic Ocean, featuring extensive beaches and recreational spaces for public enjoyment.

Robert Moses established this state park in the 1920s to provide New York residents with access to coastal recreation on Long Island.

The Jones Beach Theater, an outdoor amphitheater within the park grounds, presents concerts and performances throughout the summer season.

The park includes multiple facilities such as restrooms, showers, concession stands, picnic areas, and designated parking lots for visitor convenience.

This protected coastal area receives approximately six million visitors annually, making it one of the most frequented beaches on the East Coast.
