Jones Beach Island serves as a critical barrier between the open Atlantic Ocean and the intricate marshlands of South Oyster Bay. This 2023 survey documents the shoreline communities of West Gilgo Beach, Gilgo Beach, and the smaller settlement of Gilgo, all linked by the linear corridor of the Ocean Pkwy. The landscape is a complex network of tidal channels and small islands, including Middle Line Island, Sanford Island, and the Black Banks Island.
