• Long Islanders soak up the last of the summer at Jones Beach (news12.com) — If you live in Oyster Bay, you can still enjoy Tobay Beach on weekends all through September, with lifeguards on duty and extended town hours. While Jones Beach's swimming season winds down, both Oyster Bay and Hempstead are keeping select beaches and pools open longer so residents can squeeze in a few more late-summer days by the water.
