This small island, bordered by the Long Island Sound, attracts sailing and boating enthusiasts with its coastal charm. Visitors can savor fresh seafood at one of the local shacks, while the quiet streets and maritime atmosphere provide a peaceful escape from the bustling city. The island’s laid-back vibe and nautical allure make it a unique destination for both locals and travelers.
