Can anyone go to Fire Island? Is Fire Island a real place?

Fire Island is known for its pristine beaches and relaxing beachside ambience. Fire Island has no restricted access. It is open to the general public.

The island and its resort communities are accessible by boat, seaplane, and several ferries that run from Patchogue, Harbor Shore, and Sayville across the bay to more than ten sites on the island.

The island is accessible by car from both ends: on the west, via the Robert Moses Causeway, and on the east, via the William Floyd Parkway Suffolk County Road 46.

Except for utility, construction, and emergency access, and with restricted beach-driving licences in the winter, motor vehicles are not permitted on the rest of the island.

Hiking the 40-acre rare maritime Sunken Forest at Sailors’ Haven, ranger-led programmes at the Fire Island National Seashore, climbing the 182 steps to the top of the Fire Island Lighthouse, guided canoe tours through the Salt Marsh, public marinas for boating and fishing, surfing, camping at Watch Hill, and spending the day at one of the lifeguarded beaches are just a few of the activities available on fire Island.
