Hither Hills State Park offers visitors scenic picnic areas and fireplaces, sport fishing, a sandy ocean beach, playing fields, a playground and a 189-site campground on the ocean. Anglers can fish year-round and obtain permits to fish at night. The unique "walking dunes" of Napeague Harbor are located on the eastern boundary of the park, which also has woodlands filled with Russian olive, oak, shad and pine trees. Bridle paths and hiking, nature, biking and cross-country ski trails are available.
Please Note: Motor homes, pop-ups and trailers are not allowed in the parking lot Friday, Saturday & Sunday.
The park has a beach open from Memorial Day to Labor Day; bridle paths; hiking trails; a scenic ten-acre, handicapped-accessible picnic area with fireplaces; a playground; playing fields; courts for horseshoes, basketball, volleyball, and tetherball; and accessible campsites, with showers and dumping stations. Additional facilities include a park office, camp store, and centrally located phones. The park is patrolled by New York State Park Police and maintains a large recycling program.
The park is 122 miles from Manhattan, via Sunrise Highway (Route 27) East.
Not so far from Hamptons and Montauk. We need more phone chargers. Toilets and showers are ok. And the most beautiful part of it - the ocean 🌊. No dogs allowed.
Beautiful beach, nice quality sand, and facilities. Great post beach clean up amenities: outdoor showers, hot water inside showers. We had some dramatic clouds roll in just as we were leaving. $10 parking fee. Please respect and preserve this gem. Will definitely return!
I've never been here in summertime, but the fall is quiet and lovely. Bathroom facilities are clean and the campsites are small but how can you beat the location?
Love this park and the beach here. 1 security guard ruins it every year. Bothered us more then we want to be when on vacation. I got a "Faliure to comply " paper on my windshield... amd he Knocked on camper door at 10 pm amd 5 am to near by campers to tell them no generators at that time.. the rest of security is great..
Great place for families and especially young kids to make the most out of summer. It can be very loud at night but the park rangers do their best to keep rowdy crowds at bay. In addition to a wonderful location on the beach there are daily crafts and softball games. If you bring kids, bikes are a must
