Photo of the Day: Ski Spray

Fun on the water.

Duck Island Harbor off of the Asharoken strip is considered by many to be one of the best locales in New York. 

To waterski there, a water-skiing permit must be obtained from Asharoken Village. This year the fee for the permit was raised to $70. A PDF copy of the permit application is attached to this article. 

No one can water-ski in Duck Island Harbor with a boat of more than 21 feet. 

The fish and wildlife habitat consists of open water, intertidal flats, and vegetated tidal wetland areas in the bay, extending from Sand City  on the west to Northport Harbor on the east.
