Description
The Beach House and Sand Dunes at Jones Beach - Dora Sofia Caputo
Image of sand dunes and beach house, captured on a rather balmy February day at Jones Beach, Long Island, New York.
Jones Beach is located in southern Nassau County, in the hamlet of Wantagh, on Jones Beach Island, a barrier island linked to Long Island by the Meadowbrook State Parkway, Wantagh State Parkway, and Ocean Parkway.
The park - 6.5 miles (10.5 km) in length -- is renowned for its beaches (which, excepting the beach on Zachs Bay, face the open Atlantic Ocean) and furnishes one of the most popular summer recreational locations for the New York metropolitan area. It is the most popular and heavily visited beach on the East Coast, with an estimated six million visitors per year.
Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater, an outdoor arena in the park, is a popular musical and concert venue.

Hi Dora, I lived for a time in the Northeast and visited Jones Beach several times. I think you have captured an unique view here of the beach environment that is spectacular. I love how the grasses sweep your eyes to the left of the image. JG
