Bayport is one of the hamlets of the town of Islip, which is located in Suffolk County on the South Shore of Long Island. The population of Bayport is approximately 8,600 residents. Islip as a whole has a population of 20,575 residents and lies just 40 miles east of New York City. Suffolk County, along with Nassau County, makes up what is generally referred to as “Long Island” by area residents. Bayport is near the Fire Island National Seashore, which can be reached by car near its eastern end at Smith Point County Park. The beautiful beaches of Fire Island are made up of soft, white sand and outdoor activities abound, including swimming, surfing, boating, kayaking, wind surfing, hiking, camping and biking. Wildlife is abundant on Fire Island along the seashore where white-tailed deer, red fox and rabbits can be seen, and anglers fish for bass, blowfish, mackerel and winter flounder. The visitors’ center is located inside one of the main attractions on the island - the Fire Island Lighthouse, which is a mid-19th century structure. Other attractions near Bayport include the Fire Island Sunken Forest, which is a very unique area that is one of the last remaining maritime forests on the eastern seaboard. Sailors Haven offers a marina, beach and picnic areas, and Robert Moses State Park, located on the west end of Fire Island has a fishing pier, boat anchorages and a putt-putt golf course.

Bayport Weather & Climate

Long Island enjoys a four-season, moderate climate, given its relatively northern latitude-which makes it a pleasant place to visit year-round. It is the largest island adjoining the continental United States, extending approximately 118 miles east-northeast from the mouth of the Hudson River, adjacent to Manhattan Island. Winters tend to be unpredictable and summers can be warm and muggy, but offshore breezes help moderate temperatures. Spring and fall are the best times to visit, when temperatures are mild. March tends to be rainy, but temperatures stay above freezing. April's warming temperatures makes it more comfortable and May is generally a gorgeous month on Long Island, weather wise. September to November is pleasant and mild, and the changing leaves make it a beautiful time to visit.
