Long Island<br />

About Long Island…<br />

Long Island has a rich history as an active, vibrant <strong>com</strong>munity,<br />

a summer playground, and home to some of New York’s most<br />

prominent families.<br />

Five distinct regions make up Long Island:<br />

• North Shore, otherwise known as the Gold Coast, with<br />

dozens of historic sites dating back to colonial days and<br />

Gatsby-era mansions.<br />

• South Shore, the Island’s spectator<br />

sports and entertainment center, with<br />

world-famous Jones and Fire Island<br />

Beaches, and home to the New York<br />

Islanders.<br />

• Central Suffolk, with beautiful forests<br />

and natural inlets, the world’s largest<br />

factory outlet center and a huge water<br />

park.<br />

• North Fork, with an array of vineyards,<br />

waterfront ports and farm stands.<br />

• South Fork, widely known as “The Hamptons,” with its<br />

pristine beaches and exclusive villages.<br />

With everything from museums,<br />

historical sites and lighthouses, to<br />

sophisticated malls, designer outlets and<br />

shopping villages, to wineries and farm<br />

stands, to family fun parks, aquariums<br />

and zoos, there is plenty to do on Long<br />

Island.<br />

You can catch a <strong>Hofstra</strong> shuttle bus to Jones Beach – a state<br />

park with six miles of gorgeous coastline, a boardwalk,<br />

swimming pools, golf and outdoor concerts.<br />
