Is that 5 Islands in New Ro? If so is there a pass required to park there or do they charge a fee?

No its between rye and mamaroneck 

But I know at 5 island park you have to be from new rock  which I'm not  but after September sometime anyone can go for free   there .

Looking out across the sound you can barely see East island off of lattingtown long island   behind the first island in the picture above

Just ordered a down wind sail rig for my kayak  this way I can take advantage of the  sea breeze that most the time blows you back to shore  . 

If I do cross over to long island I will pick a day that the  wind is  blowing back to where  I started from this way later on in the day  when my arms get tired. I got the wind to help out  wind definitely effects the kayak more then the current around here .

Guy I use to work with competed in a sort of amateur kayak biathlon(?) in the Daks. Had to paddle across several lakes and carry kayak between the land-locked ones. Not exactly sure where it started/ended..?  Sounded like fun, if you're into that sort of thing!
