Beachside Balance: Exploring Robert Moses State Park with Cannabis in Mind

Long Island is known for its expansive beaches, and Robert Moses State Park is a favorite for good reason. With sandy shores, ocean views, and access to the iconic Fire Island Lighthouse, it’s a destination worth making a day of. As we gear up to open Joyful Shores in Babylon soon, we love sharing ways you can responsibly integrate cannabis into your lifestyle—without ever putting yourself or others at risk.

Make it a mellow beach day: Robert Moses offers clean sand, breezy boardwalks, and gorgeous photo ops. It’s also best accessed by car—so if cannabis is part of your plan, make sure to wait until you're safely home before consuming.

Edibles = beach-friendly (in moderation): Low-dose edibles (like 2.5–5 mg gummies) are a discreet, smoke-free way to elevate your sensory experience. Consider taking one after your beach walk, not before driving or entering public areas.

Pack it out, leave no trace: Cannabis packaging is still waste—keep your impact light. Whether you're toting water, snacks, or joints (for later), bring a bag to clean up after yourself.

A note on legality: Consuming cannabis in public is not permitted in New York State parks. This is about inspiration, not instruction—always follow local rules and regulations.

When Joyful Shores opens in soon, we’ll offer plenty of guidance on how to integrate cannabis into your life safely and enjoyably.
