Fire Island Photography

Fire Island's scenic oceanfront vistas and colorful sunrises and sunsets over the ocean or bay provide great opportunities for photography.

The Fire Island Lighthouse is perhaps one of the most recognizable landmarks on Long Island, and makes a very patient "model" for your camera.

If you are engaged in any commercial photography or filming, you must obtain a special use permit from the National Park Service.

You may share your images on Fire Island's social media sites or enter photographs in local and national art shows and contests.
