TRANSPORTATION:

Saltaire Day Camp is located in Saltaire, NY – on Fire Island.

You can purchase an Empire Pass to park in the lot.

Please note transportation costs (ferry tickets or Empire Passes) are covered by the Village of Saltaire only for those in aquatic or leadership positions (Program Directors, Specialists, Group Leaders) – other roles may be eligible based upon their season availability and at the discretion of Village administration.
