Jose Santiago

Nice small lighthouse that's good for a quick visit if you are in the area. I wouldn't make the trip just to see it. We spent the day in Port Jefferson and then stopped here on the way back to Nassau county. The entry is free and the views are nice but you can't get close to the cliffs or the water.

Nice small zoo compared to San Diego or the Bronx zoo. Took about 2 hours at a leisurely pace. Some exhibits were closed and some animals were inside because it was chilly. The cafe prices are sky high. Parking was $11 for a weekday and seemed pretty safe.
