Long Cove was originally a fishing community built with the salvage of shipwrecks in the 1800s. Families of the original settlers built summer shacks in the 1900s which remained until the establishment of Fire Island National Seashore in 1964. Join us as we take a nostalgic look back at life on the Great South Beach.
