    fishing, and other kinds of passive water sports.

    area.
• Activities on the public fishing pier, upland, and surface waters to involve the community.
• Exhibits of Oyster Bay's historic maritime activities.
• Scientific research facilities for various programs such as marine biology, aquatic ecosystems and
    water quality monitoring.
