Letter from the Mayor and Board of Trustees,

Welcome to the Website of the glorious Village of Ocean Beach, the unofficial capital of the half mile wide by 32 mile long barrier beach of Fire Island, just five miles south of Long Island, New York. This Website enables you to research information about a Village that is a tranquil retreat during Spring, Fall and Winter, and dynamically alive with people and activities during the summer.

We have it all - beautiful supervised ocean and bay beaches, lovely one family homes, restaurants, hotels, bed & breakfasts, nightlife, movies, concerts, youth group, tennis, basketball, baseball, art shows, an international film festival, Memorial Day and July 4th parades and celebrations, dock concert performances, boutiques and shops, ferry and water taxi services, a seasonal and transient boat marina, medical and nursing services, a post office, little red wagons and bicycles. And in the summer, there are no cars!

The Village of Ocean Beach functions through a Mayor and Board of Trustees, a Village Office, a Justice Court, a Police Department, a volunteer Fire and Emergency Medical Department, a Water and Sewer Plant, and a first class contingent of lifeguards.

From time to time, this Website will update you on our various meetings, laws, regulations, and will highlight upcoming feature arts and entertainment events. We hope to create as much excitement in the Website as we actually generate in the Village when it's aglow with happy energetic people enjoying the sun, sand, sea and sky from the wave-crested Atlantic Ocean to the serene Great South Bay.
