Boating On Long Island

An uninterrupted 80-mile stretch of contrasting coastlines gives Long Island its name and a distinct landscape. With the rich blue Atlantic Ocean on one side and the turquoise Caribbean Sea on the other, there is more than enough to keep any boating enthusiast enraptured. You'll enjoy views of rolling hills, dramatic cliffs and caves, beautiful expanses of soft sand beaches, and peaceful coves. Whether you sail by yacht, sailboat or small boat, you can dock at two marinas on the island that provide the usual services. Passing boaters can anchor safely in bad weather at Salt Pond Harbour.
