New York City
Sands Point is considered part of the New York Metropolitan area. You'll be less than an hour from Manhattan by train, and many interns take advantage of that on their free time or when relatives visit. There are far too many things to mention about New York City here, it is a major benefit of working at Sands Point.
There are ocean beaches on both North and South shores of Long Island, including the well-known Jones Beach which has many summer events.
