Greenport, one of Long Island’s great summer destinations, offers many family-friendly ways to spend the day in the village.
PARKS AND BEACHES
Mitchell Park: It is a dog-friendly spot where kids can play. Families can wander along the waterfront and watch boaters.
Arshamomaque Preserve: Located on the edge of Greenport, the preserve is a place where families can explore—just make sure you keep your dog leashed (拴着). Featuring 126 acres of wetlands and woodland habitats, lookout for an abundance of wildlife.
Orient Beach State Park: About 10 miles east of Greenport, it has a large sandy-yet-rocky beach where peoples it in the sun while others fish. The park is a great place to bird watch.
ACTIVITIES
Skate Park: The park is open, featuring ramps (坡道), a half-pipe and other items on which to trick. Safety gear (用具) is required.
Mini Golf: Golf at Drossos Motel is open to the public daily. The course has 18 holes and features the Jennie’s at Drossos snack bar.
SHOPS
Greenport is a very walkable town, with much of what can be shopped on Front Street.
Goldsmith’s Toys & Electronics: This shop has direct appeal to kids. Walk past and see the rubber ducks in the window—it’s the store’s signature item—but walk inside to find a variety of toys and seasonal fun; it’s an independent toy store that’s been in town for more than 30 years.
Sweet Indulgences: It’s also highly likely your little one digs treats, so a stop by this shop should not disappoint. Parents can purchase the many household items for sale, while also finding lots of sweets and chocolates.
One Love Beach: It’s another place that should have youth appeal, as it carries beachy gear while also offering water skis and sailboats for rent.

Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure, providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta. The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers.Theyhave a reputation for providing a great riding experience.
The morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly exciting. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.
In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.
Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine. Looking back on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.
