Flashback Friday - May 2012 - Robert Moses Lighthouse, Babylon, NY

I decided it would be a nice idea to put up some past hikes/walks I've done once a week. Today I will post about Robert Moses Lighthouse located as part of Fire Island.

This is one of my favorite places to walk on Long Island. It has a short walk on a boardwalk among the sand dunes that leads to the Lighthouse. You may then also climb the stairs to the top and get a better view of the ocean on a clear day.

If you keep walking past the lighthouse, you will come to the small village of Kismet, which has little beach houses you can rent and sidewalks that lead to the sandy beaches. You may rent bikes here to travel farther to the next town.

Wildlife: You are almost guaranteed to see deer along the boardwalk.
Views: Ocean beach

Unfortunately, due to Hurricane Sandy, the boardwalk is not currently open. Thus I thought this was deserving of a flashback. It's important to appreciate what is there when you get the chance, as you don't know when you won't have it anymore.
