Mastic Beach is found on Long Island’s South Shore peninsula that extends into Moriches Bay. The area is known for sailing, fishing, hiking, camping, birding, swimming, and other outdoor water activities as well as shopping. In 2018 the Village of Mastic Beach was dissolved and became a census designated place managed by the Town of Brookhaven.
If you are feeling like you aren’t sailing through life the way you once were or should be, consider reaching out to a therapist who can help you get to smooth sailing once again. You don’t have to feel like your drowning any longer.
