Sea Cliff

County: Nassau

Just 25 miles east of Manhattan, a prominence of rock off Long Island's North Shore forms the one-square-mile village of Sea Cliff. Natural beauty and civic excellence combine in this delightful suburb where the median income is nearly twice the national average. No less than 16 lush parks grace the community, the most scenic being Memorial. Each green space has its own attraction, such as the stage at Elm Park that offers Shakespeare plays in season. The community beach along the Gold Coast is a focal point of life in the warmer months, and a community picnic kicks off the summer season. Village homes showcase Queen Anne, Carpenter Gothic, and Victorian architecture, an ideal complement to the area's dramatic seaside beauty. Many artists call Sea Cliff their home, and the area celebrates the arts and crafts in a number of colorful and well-attended festivals.
