Huntington Village
Huntington Village is a great downtown area to spend a few hours. Park your car and explore it on foot.

Walk over to the Book Revue, which is Long Island's largest independent bookstore or catch an arthouse film at the Cinema Arts Centre. You can walk to Heckscher park to stroll around the lake and visit the Heckscher museum of art. You can also catch live music and go bar hopping to experience the local nightlife after hours.
Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park
This 409-acre site features an incredible landscape designed by the same firm responsible for creating Central Park: the Olmsted Brothers. Explore over 20 gardens, stroll five miles of woodland trails, delight in the warmth of the two greenhouses, and tour a 65-room Tudor Revival mansion. The park is open everyday from 9am-5pm.
New York City
The most obvious tourist attraction is to visit New York City. The best way to get to NYC from Long Island is to take the Long Island Railroad (LIRR) train from the Farmingdale LIRR station to New York Penn Station in Times Square. Duration of the trip one way is one hour. Driving is not recommended as there is sure to be traffic.
