Long Island Camera Roll Check... What's Free on LI?

This week on the Long Island Tea Podcast, Sharon and Stacy are back from an inspiring week at the Destinations International Annual Conference in Portland, where they connected with tourism leaders from around the world and returned with fresh ideas they'll be bringing back to Discover Long Island. They recap the highlights from the conference before diving into all things summer, including free adventures across Long Island, camping on the North Shore, incredible wildlife encounters, and asking listeners what's in their Long Island camera roll.

#ShowUsYourLongIslander
