Why Live in Central Fire Island

Central Fire Island is a coastal neighborhood characterized by its pristine beaches, forests nestled between dunes, and small coastal towns. Known for its long history as an LGBTQ+ friendly area, Cherry Grove, or "The Grove," is one of the oldest communities and a popular summer destination for New York’s theater and arts groups since the 1930s. The island is car-free, with residents and visitors relying on walking, bicycles, or golf carts. The National Park Service reports that 2.2 million visitors come to Fire Island from May through October. Attractions include the Sunken Forest, a rare maritime holly forest, and Sailors Haven beach and marina. Architectural styles vary from beach cottages with cedar shake siding to contemporary and modern homes. The neighborhood has a lower crime risk compared to the national average. Events like The Invasion of the Pines on the Fourth of July and The Pines Party highlight the vibrant local culture. Nightlife is lively, with venues such as Cherry’s on the Bay, the Pavilion, and Sip-n-Twirl offering music, dancing, and drag shows. The Cherry Grove Community House and Theater hosts various events, including fitness classes and nighttime shows. Children attend the highly rated Bay Shore Middle School and Bay Shore High School on Long Island. The island's seasonality means most businesses close by the end of October, requiring residents to be well-prepared for the winter months. Access to the island is primarily by ferry, with reduced service in the off-season.
