The 15 Most Instagram Worthy Spots On Long Island

If you want to update your Instagram feed with some great pictures, there's no need to leave Long Island.

Check out what we think are the most "Instagram-worthy" places across Long Island where you can grab amazing pictures to make all your followers jealous:

Oheka Castle - Huntington

This is a hot spot not just for Long Islander's Instagram feeds but for weddings as well. The historic mansion has been a popular destination for high-class events since 1919, when Oheka's first bride, Maude Kahn, hosted her wedding in the Grand Ballroom, according to the Oheka Castle website.

Montauk Lighthouse - Montauk

Montauk has always been a popular vacation destination, but now it's a popular place for all Long Islanders to grab a pic with the iconic lighthouse for their Instagram feeds. The historic landmark was built in 1796 and stands 111 feet tall (perfect for grabbing different angles).

Big Duck - Flanders

The Big Duck is quintessential Long Island. This duck-shaped building was building 1931 by duck farmer Martin Maurer and was previously used as a shop to sell ducks and duck egg. Now it just serves as the perfect backdrop for your Instagram pics.

Drove all the way to Long Island to see the #bigduck

The Nautical Mile is a 1-mile stretch of businesses along the water on the South Shore. It has plenty of picturesque bars and restaurants to choose from which means it also has plenty of opportunities to grab a cool pic for your Instagram.

Kings Park Psychiatric Hospital - Kings Park

This creepy abandoned psychiatric hospital attracts those who love an adventure...or maybe they just want a cool picture for social media. Either way this is the perfect spot for both.

This was taken during a lovely trip inside an abandoned hospital complex. I could never get enough of these inspiring, emotional places.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⚠ NOT a repost.

Old Westbury Gardens - Old Westbury

It may be a 112-year-old mansion but that doesn't mean it's not a great spot to take good Instagram pics. The best part, residents can take in-depth guided tours of the Westbury House and Gardens anytime.
