Captree State Park

Captree State Park is a state park in Suffolk County, New York in the USA.

The park is located on the easternmost end of Jones Island ( the barrier island that includes Jones Beach ) and overlooks the Fire Island Inlet and the westernmost section of Fire Island, partly in the Town of Babylon.

The park offers a marina and boat launch, fishing, picnic tables, a playground and recreation programs.

Captree State Park lies at the eastern tip of Jones Beach Island in the heart of the fishing grounds. Captree is a fisherman's haven and a picnicker's delight. The park features a boat basin with open and charter boats available for fishing, as well as scuba diving, sightseeing and excursion boats.
