Whether you enjoy canoeing and kayaking for a great workout or just rowing along for the peaceful scenery, you'll find exploring the beautiful waterways of Suffolk County Parks to be worthwhile. The County Parks offer a great diversity in waterways from the scenic Carmans River in Southaven County Park, to Northwest Harbor at Cedar Point, and from the Great Peconic Bay at Meschutt Beach to Big Reed Pond in Montauk County Park. Rowboating, Canoeing and Kayaking are a great way to enjoy the outdoors, view the forests and beaches and watch wildlife on the water and along the shoreline. At some parks we offer canoe, kayak and rowboat rentals. Contact the park of your choice or the park administration office at (631) 854-4949 for information as to parking and launching areas. A treasure of opportunities await the adventurous paddler.
