A Great beach park, walking promenade and playground on the North Shore of Long Island. The…read morefacilities are well maintained and there is plenty to do. This beach park is big, the website boasts over 60 acres of land. Since this is a beach slap on the sunscreen and soak up those rays, vitamin deficient folks will have no problem producing more vitamin D as the sun is scorching! There are open and covered picnic areas for you to barbecue. I think these areas require a permit and a fee and are only available to residents of the town. The beach has at least 2 life guards at every marked swimming area and these guys and gals do their job, so people please swim within the flags! Food options are limited and the concession stand is only opened on the weekends, the prices are fairly reasonable. The beach park is pet friendly and they provide baggies at certain stations so you can clean up after your pooch. There is a fee for parking $15 for residents and $20 if you're not a resident. A great place to spend a weekday or weekend to get away from the heat or just hang.

When I lived out here, we visited this park…read morealmost every weekend spending the entire afternoon, bbq'in, playing games, riding bikes, and we even hung up some hammocks. Occasionally, the park will hold certain culture nights, on the weekend that I visited they had a Caribbean night out near the amphitheater. A lot of people showed up and it definitely was not a disappointment. They even had a few celebrity, Caribbean singers. A lot of food vendors and arts and craft vendors were out and about making it worthwhile for the visitors. This park holds a lot of history, the memorial site down near the pond is a great place to watch the sunset. Here's a fun fact, Eisenhower State Park is larger than Central Park in Manhattan. If you ever get a chance to visit, I highly recommend. Not to mention there is also a golf course accessible to the public for a small day fee.

Shell Creek Park in my opinion is great when you look at the facts. The park itself is basically…read morehidden from all traffic and tucked in the back of Island Park. This means you do not hear any cars, you do not see people walking by, there is no noise, ad the park hardly ever gets crowded because of this. Is this a plus or what! Besides this the park is FREE. The grounds are VERY WELL kept, there is never garbage around, the grass is beautiful, and the best is the park is on the water! What parks around here sit on the bay with the view of boats and the bay? The bathrooms are open, basketballs, tennis, softball, kids play area, shuffle board, and the park even has the equipment to lend you. There are people fishing in the far end which is nice to watch.

It's basically very small and quaint with a gazebo where during the summer there are outdoor concerts, did I mention free? Anyway, whenever I'm here I feel like a throwback to some other time back in the day when life was just simple. Like something out of a Monet painting.

The playground equipment is relatively new with great colors and characters. My nephew was having a ball running around. It's also wonderful to be able to see a soccer field from the toddlers' playground. It makes it easy to watch older kids play from one convenient location. Thankfully, parking was very easy to access which is such a benefit when there are little ones who are quick to scurry. Plus, traffic is relatively controlled so fast cars aren't swerving by. The only thing I cannot comment on is the state of the bathroom. I didn't have a chance to enter it therefore I have to deduct a star for that unknown element. Overall, I highly recommend this park for all families and adults young at heart.

What a great neighborhood park!…read more Very clean, and lots of options for kids of all ages. There are regular and baby swings, as well as a handicapped swing. The floor is cushioned, bouncy even, friendly for trips and falls. There is a basketball court, and grassy areas separate from the field. My 17 month old son had so much fun at this park.
