Dock wisdom

·

Captree Boat Basin is 10 min east of Jones Beach -- the best dock for party boat fishing with no license required.

·

Striped bass run the south shore inlets from May through October. Freeport charter boats fish them hard at first light.

·

Book whale watches and dolphin tours from Freeport on weekdays -- weekend trips sell out in July and August.

·

The Fire Island Ferry from Bay Shore is the move for a day trip to a car-free beach village -- no car needed, bikes welcome.
