Things to do with kids in Nassau County
Nassau is the close-in half of the Island: denser towns, bigger county parks, and more of everything within a twenty-minute drive. Eisenhower and Cantiague anchor the park system, Museum Row sits under the Cradle of Aviation, and the South Shore beach towns run summer camps within earshot of the water.
