Due to Hurricane Irene, all state parks and historic sites in the Long Island, Palisades, and Taconic Regions are temporarily closed until further notice.

Jamesport State Park has a total of 525 pristine acres. 225-acres are State Park and 300-acres are used by local farmers, to ensure preservation of the land and to prevent future development. Jamesport State Park is a shorefront park that offers nearly 1-mile of pristine beach front on the North Shore of Long Island along the Long Island Sound.

Hiking, nature walks and bird watching in available on the eastern portion of the property. The remaining portion of the park land is still under review, but with support from the local community and environmental reviews, the land could one day provide activities such as camping, swimming and day use.
