Babylon, NY
Parking Fee
Optimum Seasons: Summer
This is the most western point of Fire Island, and is the only point that is accessible by car. I have been to both Field 5 and Field 4, and can say that there is absolutely no difference except that Field 5 has a playground. You are also able to cross over by foot into Fire Island's nearby towns like Kismet from the eastern parking lot (Field 5), and walk to the Fire Island Lighthouse (which I didn't care to do). This beach is a wonderful beach for adults and children alike. It is not such a long walk if you have a stroller. In my opinion, it has the best concession stand of all beaches on Long Island! An added bonus for men: there are plenty of exposed boobs when you walk east on the shore line towards the Fire Island beach where nudity is permitted. Also, parking is only $10 per vehicle!
