Hallock State Park Preserve offers a total of 225 acres. Hallock State Park Preserve is a shorefront park preserve that offers nearly one mile of pristine beachfront on the North Shore of Long Island along the Long Island Sound.
Hiking, nature walks, and bird watching are available. Development of the remainder of the preserve is in the planning stages and may include formal trails, environmental education, and activities appropriate for a park preserve.

Hallock State Park Preserve
Start your weekend with a healthy
walk along the Hallock State Park Preserve beach with the Atlantic Marine
Conservation Society. Along the way, we watch
for wildlife and pick up marine debris, so it does not harm local and migrating
wildlife. Observations and debris
collection are recorded for studies on marine conservation. Along the way, we will discuss current topics
in marine conservation. In the Fall and
early Winter months, we are especially on the lookout for cold stunned sea
turtles that are in need of rescue and rehabilitation. Walking the beach is a great way
to get exercise, fresh air, and reduce stress, while supporting local
conservation efforts. As it is a Park
volunteer activity, there is no charge and the seasonal parking fee is waived
for registered participants. For more information, call the
Park Office (631) 315-5475,
or visit the AMCS website: www.amseas.org.
