The Big Duck

Really nice gift shop inside of the duck, featuring Long Island items and a whole line of Big Duck merchandise. Friendly staff and prices were very reasonable.

Cute store inside with big duck gifts. The man who runs it is nice! On holiday weekends they stay open a little later.

Duck butt.

The Big Duck

The Big Duck is a great photo opportunity. My grand-kids loved getting a picture at the duck's butt. There's a large field to run around. Fun to read about the Duck's history.
