Nassau County Long
Island:
 Come and play golf at the world-famous championship golf courses at Eisenhower Park or spend the day at the South Shore, where the soft white sand and lively boardwalk of Long Island’s most famous beach, Jones Beach, meets the sparkling blue Atlantic Ocean. An outdoor amphitheatre, the Tommy Hilfiger Theatre at Jones Beach books top musical acts all season. Nearby, go on a fishing charter, a paddleboat cruise, visit the seafood extravaganza of the Freeport Nautical Mile, or come see horse racing at its finest at Belmont Racetrack.
Catch the excitement of a hockey game with the New York Islanders at Nassau Coliseum and experience an evening of culture and music at the Tilles Center for the Performing Arts.
Tour the North Shore where Gold Coast mansions, including Sand’s Point, Old Westbury Gardens, Nassau County Museum of Art, and Coe Hall, immortalized in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby grace the dramatic bluffs overlooking the Long Island Sound. Or stroll through lavish public gardens at Bailey Arboretum or Planting Fields Arboretum. Visit the summer home of Theodore Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill.
Nassau has a museum for nearly all interests: from its world-class Children’s Museum and remarkably in-depth Cradle of Aviation museum, to museums taking you back to the time of the Native Americans at Garvies Point Museum, and back to life pre-Civil War at Old Bethpage Village Restoration.
Nassau County also acts as the business and commercial hub of Long Island, with shopping that rivals NYC’s Fifth Ave., restaurants, business amenities and hotels to make your next visit, for business or pleasure, unforgettable.
