Ferries to Fire Island (see ) may charge an additional fee or may require that bicycles be shipped separately on a freight boat.
On Fire Island, you may ride your bike on established routes designated for off-road motor vehicle travel. Bicycles are not permitted in the Otis Pike Fire Island High Dune Wilderness area, on boardwalks, at marinas and in some communities. There are currently no specially designated bicycle routes within Fire Island National Seashore.
You will usually find public restrooms where there are public beaches, but public facilities are not available in most Fire Island communities. In the off-season, facilities are even harder to find.
Certain Federal and vehicle and traffic laws apply to bicycles. Remember that sandy surfaces can be difficult to travel on. Always ride safely and wear your helmet!
