60 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

Your itinerary includes some good beach time at Fire Island National Seashore and Ocean Grove Beach. The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Ellis Island are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Get out of town with these interesting New York City side-trips: Bay Head Beach (in Bay Head), Point Lookout Beach (in Point Lookout) and Ponquogue Beach (in Hampton Bays). There's still lots to do: wander the streets of Times Square, learn more about the world around you at American Museum of Natural History, admire the masterpieces at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and take in panoramic vistas at Empire State Building.
