The Shinnecock Inlet

The hottest day so far this summer. I took a short ride to the Ocean to catch some cool off shore breezes. I got off my bicycle to watch this Catamaran sail into the Shinnecock Inlet. After a few minutes it was getting chilly. The high humidity combined with the ocean breeze was cooling me down too quickly. I decided to start off to my next stop Southampton across the inlet, you can see mobile campers on the beach in the background.

Shelter Island

Shelter Island is nestled between the North and South Forks of Long Island. The island is around 8,000 acres in size. However, vast tracts are protected wetlands nature preserve marshland. Nearly one-third of the island is owned by The Nature Conservancy and kept in a forever-wild state. The Island can be reached via ferry from Greenport to the north (approximately 15-minute trip) or from North Haven to the south (approximately 5-minute trip).
