Sound Beach

County: Suffolk

Sound Beach is a community in the north part of the Town of Brookhaven which came into existence in the late 1920’s.  The early residents put up large tents on their property during the summer months and eventually small cottages filled the area.  Sound Beach was a summer community for about 40 years after its development.  Today it is a year round community where many of the small lots have been developed to support modern homes. Residents of Sound Beach enjoy some of the most stunning scenery on Long Island, nestled along the fabled North Shore.  Bridgeport, Connecticut, is just a ferry ride away.  Gentle hills clad with old-growth forest set against the rugged shoreline of Long Island Sound create a breathtaking landscape and virtually unlimited recreational opportunities.
