From shopping to fishing and aquariums to lighthouses, there is a lot to do in and around this small New York town. Both Atlantis Marine World and the Long Island Aquarium and Exhibition Center are great places to learn about the nearby Atlantic Ocean. Be daring and go on a shark dive, or snorkel with the rays. For something just as thrilling but not as wet, climb a rock wall or take a scenic and educational river tour. You can even see the western hemisphere’s largest all-living Coral Reef Display. Also not far from Medford is the Montauk Point Lighthouse Museum, a national historic landmark that has been part of Long Island’s land and seascape for over 200 years and still navigates seafarers to this day. The museum has exhibits that feature stories of the city’s past and also a gift shop where you can grab a souvenir as a way to remember your trip to this beautiful site.
If shopping is what you’re looking to do during your getaway, not to worry because you are a short drive away from two Tanger Outlets, one at Riverhead and one at the Arches-Deerpark. Complete your trip defined by total relaxation by visiting the Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard, where you can taste their exceptional vines on their beautiful grounds. You can enjoy it all when you visit Medford. A trip to Long Island will always keep you on your feet.
