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 />
