Permits are issued for Smithtown residents only. You must be over 21 years of age. A valid driver’s license is needed to prove residency. Fees:

• 11-50 people $100.00
• 51-100 people $150.00
• 101-200 people is $250.00
• 201-300 people is $350.00
• 301-400 people is $500.00
• $100 for each additional 100 people thereafter

Non-resident vehicles park for a fee of $12 per car at town parks and town beaches (where and/or when non-resident parking is available at each facility) if they are attending a “Group Outing” with a resident who acquired a permit.

Camping is available at two Smithtown beaches. Short Beach and Callahan's Beach for weekends only. The permit is for up to 10 people and the fee is $30 per night. Non-residents can park vehicles overnight for a $12 per car fee at Callahan's Beach if you are attending a “Group Outing” with a resident who acquired a permit . However, there is no non-resident parking at Short Beach. Camping and picnic permits will be issued, based upon availability, to town residents over the age of 21. Permits must be applied for in person at the Smithtown Parks Department:
