Nissequogue River State Park
About
Nissequogue River State Park is a 512-acre state park in New York, managed by the state park agency. It sits about half a mile from the town of Kings Park, which makes it an easy stop for anyone already in the area. Late spring through early fall is the most comfortable stretch for a visit. Typical averages at the nearby Centerport weather station run from highs around 70°F in May to about 74°F in September, with July peaking near 83°F. Several other outings lie within a few miles. Kings Park Bluff Boulder, a climbing area, is about 0.7 mile away, and the Long Island Greenbelt Trail is roughly a mile off. The Blue Trail is about 1.2 miles away and the Wetland Trail about 1.9 miles away, so there are short hikes to pair with a park visit.
