Warm Weather Fun
As we transition from chillier spring days to the sweltering days of mid-summer, the weather of June is likely to be prime for outdoor entertainment! Regardless of whether you want to utilize the weather for personal fitness or relaxation, here are some great activities to enjoy right here on Long Island between all of the festivals and concerts!

Bike Along A Scenic Trail
Thanks to Long Island’s extensive selection of parks and trails, biking doesn’t have to be confined to the busy streets. Grab your bike and head out to one of these peaceful trails for a morning or afternoon ride through nature!

Head To A Farm For Strawberry Picking
With June marking the beginning of berry picking season with strawberries being ripe for eating, numerous farms around the Island allow you to pick the berries yourself! If you would rather just cut right to eating the berries, these locations have stocked farm stands as well!

Relax In The Sunshine At The Beach
Words cannot describe the feeling of watching the waves lapping against the shore as a warm breeze blows through your hair. From lounging beneath an umbrella, to jogging along the damp sand, Long Island’s beaches are perfect for every summertime occasion!
