Town of Shelter Island

The Town of Shelter Island is a unique island community nestled between the North and South Forks of Long Island, accessible only by ferry. Nearly one-third of the island is protected as the Mashomack Preserve. With a small year-round population that swells in summer, Shelter Island maintains a quiet, rural character distinct from the rest of Suffolk County.
