New York has the third-largest coastline along the Atlantic Ocean in the United States.

While Florida and Maine have the longest coastlines along the Atlantic, New York ranks third. Its coastline stretches over 2,000 miles when including both its mainland and the shores of its many islands, including Long Island. New York's coastal areas feature a mix of urban beaches, such as those in the city, and natural landscapes like those found in the Hamptons and along the Adirondack coast.
