1. American Airpower Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 99 reviews
The American Airpower Museum is Non-Profit 501C3 Aviation Museum and State Chartered Educational Foundation. A unique Museum in that many of the historic Aircraft are operational and fly regularly during the spring and summer months. The Museum is located at historic Republic Airport in Farmingdale NY. The Airport established back in the 1920s by Fairchild and Grumman Aviation. Eventually the home of Seversky Aviation during the 1930s it would evolve into Republic Aviation in 1939. In 1941 Republic produced the P-47 Thunderbolt which would go on to be the most mass produced fighter of WWII with over 15,000 built. Republic would go on to build the F-84, F-105, and A-10 Fighter Aircraft all right here in Long Island NY. Today the American Airpower Museum calls one of the last three surviving Republic Hangars home.

The intimate parlor setting was perfect for the performance, but seats are a bit uncomfortable and sometimes it's difficult to see clearly when a tall person is in front of you.The acts were very good.

Located in Wheatley Heights, NY on five spectacular wooded acres of the Henry Kaufman Campgrounds, The Adventure Park at Long Island is the area's most exciting new attraction. The Adventure Park appeals to outdoor fun-seekers age 7 through adult and features multiple zip lines and aerial ropes challenge courses.

Everything was fantastic. Only suggestion is they need a few more staff to help with the warm up and some of the easier courses as we were held up quite a bit by some kids the weren't proficient on the equipment.
4. Belmont Lake State Park

Reviewed By LongIslandGiirl - Deer Park, New York
I have lived in the area for yeRs, and have frequented the park every summer , going on o picnics, BBQ's and the like. However, this year in efforts to stay healthy, I have begun walking and/or bike riding thru here on my lunch hour, since I normally sit a lot for my job.
There is nothing better to clear your head and enjoy nature. I go through the trails which are safe, although I am often with a co-worker. The birds and geese, ducks etc are plentiful and the lake is just so nice. You can rent a rowboat or paddle boat for a foster and do the lake if you wish,
Nice picnic facilities, and clean bathrooms.

I come to this beach with my family at least once a week. It is located just east of Jones Beach, so it is just a beautiful as far as the scenery goes. it is a beach run by the town of Oyster bay for its residents, but it is open to non-resident during the week. The walk to the beach isn't as bad as Jones beach though. there is the Ocean side, a bay side and the marina. It also has a outdoor Gym for the muscle heads, but it's never occupied. I think you have too bring your own weight (I don't see anything). It has a food court in the center of the beach. On the eastern end, there is a place to buy food. they serve your typical overpriced beach food (burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, ice cream). There is also surfboarding and soft boarding area, children’s play area, picnic area, Spray Park, and a Miniature Golf Course. Finally, there are 2 full service restaurants.
Parking fees: TOB Residents $20 daily, $60 season; Non-residents permitted Mondays through Fridays only (except holidays): $50 daily.

We came here on Labor Day, hoping that most people would either be away or busy with bbqs. We were wrong on that front and it was fairly crowded, but, never in an uncomfortable way. The lines really weren't bad at all, and you were never bumping into people. Parking was a drag (we ended up in the farthest back lot), but if you go early in the day, it shouldn't be nearly as bad.
There are plenty of rides to keep the kids entertained for hours, and most of the younger rides are grouped in the same area. This is helpful so that you're not having to run all over the park to find the ones that the little kids are allowed on. It got surprisingly hot as the day wore on, but they had various misting stations set up (which was a nice relief for kids and adults alike), and there were plenty of places to sit as well as areas of shade.
The rides themselves were all a good time. There were the usual ones that you would find at a carnival or theme park, but also ones that us adults hadn't seen before and thought were fun. There were several rides for much older kids/adults, but they too were gathered together in one area. My husband and I found our respective restrooms to be clean, and all staff we encountered throughout the day were friendly and helpful.
We were all too busy enjoying the rides and didn't sit down to eat an actual meal, instead grabbing sodas and popcorn for the ride home. There were more than enough choices if you wanted to eat though, from the usual carnival fare of cotton candy and funnel cakes, to pizza, chicken tenders, or hot dogs. There are also plenty of carnival style games to partake in if rides aren't your thing, with younger kids usually guaranteed a prize of some kind.
This is a great way to spend a whole day, or even just a few hours. It is a nice alternative to some of the bigger parks, and not nearly so overwhelming to try to tackle doing everything there.

Jim and Susan Kohler and family run a terrific business renting and selling kayaks and sailboats, providing moonlight excursions and a family atmosphere all with dedicated service and expert guidance and advice. I bought my first kayak, a Hurricane Aquasport Phoenix 140 there in 2005, and returned this past summer to buy another sit on top, a tandem Perception Tribe for my wife and I to enjoy together. As usual Jim and his staff were right there with us all the way, and gave us a free rental at any time while we waited for our new Tribe delivery from the factory. Unlike a big box store, the staff at The Dinghy shop know their product and customer service is professional, constant, and top notch. Rental fees seem to be standard and prices for accessories as well as both our kayaks are the same as the big box stores, (if the big box stores can match the quality) probably because of the volume at TDS.

This is a very good place to shop for engagement ring and wedding rings. I and my fiance shopped around for a couple of months and we made our last destination Busy Bee Jewelry.
The staff is very professional and they took their time to explain about different quality diamonds and showed us the difference with their latest diamond technology that shows and explains why one diamond is better quality than the other one. Thank you very much for all your help. Will definately use them in future and I highly recommend them.
