Fire Island is the prime choice for those couples longing for the nostalgic past and a seemingly simpler time. Accessible by ferry from New York’s Long Island, Fire Island is part pristine wilderness, part quaint villages, and part dazzling white sand beaches. Couples can indulge all three on this barrier island. The tiny, walkable island has no roads, and therefore no cars. Couples should also not expect fancy condos or high rise buildings. This is where folks go to relax and enjoy each other’s company. Charming communities range from vibrant Ocean Beach and Ocean Bay Park to lively villages of Fire Island Pines and Cherry Grove to serene Lonelyville. Keep reading for more getaway deals.
