smith point county park

Great beach and boardwalk with facilities for summer fun for all ages. Great night spot for everyone to enjoy with live music and good food at reasonable prices. Free parking for seniors during the week and $5 per car with the pass.

We go to this beach every time we visit family. This is a great little beach in an unbelievable location. Just minutes off the highway, you basking in the sun with a cool one in you hand from the Beach Hut. The live entertainment all afternoon and evening can't be beat. If you can't afford a ticket to paradise, just stop on down here for the day!

The beach is very clean. Since hurricane sandy the shoreline is closer. The beach was cleaned up and sand was added. They did a great job of revitalizing the beach.

Wow the beach has changed over the years but one thing has always remained the same is just how clean and nice it is. It is never over crowded and is just a great place to bring the family or go take a nice walk on the shore.

We got to visit this beach at the end of the season this time, but in general Smith Point beach has been less crowded than public beaches at Robert Moses State or the Hamptons. Just as clean and beautiful as the other beaches listed, if you love the almost rock-free sugar-sand of the Caribbeans but with a bit colder water.

I have always preferred this beach to any other. It is clean and has a great view. I love to come in the morning and I always pack a lunch. The concession stand is a bit expensive. The waves are rather big! The parking fee is $15On Friday and Saturday nights there is live music on the boardwalk. The Flight 800 Memorial is also on the grounds.

Any day this is a great place to walk, and gather your thoughts ! If you are lucky go to the north of the camp sites with binoculars and when the weather is cold you may see some seals. Watch the weather and dress for it

Its great during the summer but like any other beach on Long Island its very busy. I would suggest going in the later months, Fall season. Its a nice walk on the beach.

Price is great for camping and the beach is only a 5 minute walk away. I've been to several Suffolk county parks and this one is by far the dirtiest. The bathroom are absolutely disgusting that you are better off going outside. It seems that they never get cleaned. The "tent only" sites are pretty small and the security is a little ridiculous with how you set up your tents on your site. If the beach wasn't right in your back door I would probably never camp again at this park. You would think that camping there on a holiday weekend they would have been on their "A" game. Indian island in Riverhead is a much better place to camp.

Smith's Point campground is a beautiful place to stay. It's 90% of the hither hills experience with exception that it is generally easier to get a reservation at this campground because it is a county campground. It differs from Hither Hills in that the campsites are more sandy than grassy and the camping is above the dunes rather than behind them. In some aspects it is better than Hither Hills because many sites have full electric, water, and sewer hookup. We found the beach to be clean and relatively un-crowded. The campground was clean and well maintained. We had no issues. We will definitely make a yearly trip to this campground.

Smiths Point is as good as it gets. Whether you walk or drive onto the beach, you will find some of the best sand on the island. Sandy has left the beach in bad shape for this upcomming sun season - hopefully they will rebuild in time.

With the 4 wheel drive permit you can surf cast here for striped bass and blues. 8 mile drive down the beach to Moriches inlet. Good fishing.

sand, waves, great sunsets, fishing pair, clean bathrooms, music, what more can you ask for............................

Smiths Point is a beautiful BEACH and CAMPGROUND, Beach Hut has great music and food and is reasonable priced... with that being said, the BATHROOMS are DISGUSTING in both areas!!! They are not cleaned regularly, if at all!! Have cob webs, and wet paper stuck all over walls and ceiling corners...tolites and sinks are dirty..... human hair all over the walls in the showers, shower curtains have mold, candy wrappers and such left behind by the sink the whole week I was there,,,,Bathrooms need to be throughly cleaned and could also be updated!

This was safe, and fun for the whole family. We will visit again this summer.
