One Minute on the North Fork: Golden Hour at Indian Island County Park

Spend a minute with us at Riverhead’s Indian Island County Park — a 275-acre stretch of land where the North and South Fork meet and the Peconic River opens into Flanders Bay.

The park is a popular spot in the summer, offering campsites, picnic tables, grills and more. But its picturesque hiking trails and sandy beaches are worth visiting year-round. One of the best times to go is just before sunset when a warm, golden-hour glow illuminates Flanders bay.
