Atlantique is a small town known as a haven for boat owners to dock and play. They come for the day or stay on board for longer in the large 150+ slip marina. Residents play along with them at the beach.
The Shack is the gathering place, snack bar and at night, opens serving its legendary 5:00 Rocket Fuels. Live bands play and sun-kissed people dance the night away.
Ferries to Atlantique leave from Bay Shore, but stop only in Dunewood.
There are about 50 homes, including the Appalachian Mountain Club’s Fire Island headquarters. The marina is a popular destination with 150+ slips. You can use the electrical and fresh water hook-ups, pump-out station, 24-hour restrooms, hot showers, playground, handball and basketball courts and BBQ area. The bay and ocean beaches have lifeguards. There is a no pet policy here in the facilities.
