Stony Brook University is located on the north shore of Long Island in Suffolk County, minutes from the Long Island Sound. We are surrounded by beautiful beaches, marinas, and hiking areas, and charming towns and villages. To the west of Stony Brook is New York City, which is easily accessible by car or train. To the east of Stony Brook are the Hamptons, Montauk, the Long Island Wine Country, and lovely rural countryside. Below we have provided a sampling of websites that can help you get to know Stony Brook, Long Island, and the surrounding areas. We also encourage you to explore the University's web site (http://www.sunysb.edu/) so that you can learn about all that the campus has to offer.
