Visiting Stony Brook- what to do in area

We will be going for a tour of Stony Brook and would like to see the area around the colleg a bit. Are there any particular places we should drive through to get a sense of the area? Any good places to eat nearby? We will probably have a couple hours after the tour to do some exploring. Any advise would be appreciated!

If you have time, try to go to Port Jefferson Village - a picturesque seaside village with plenty of places to eat and a nice place to stroll. It’s about 5 miles from SB campus. If the weather were warmer I would recommend some local beaches. You could go to Smithaven Mall, but just don’t…it"s a mall.

Sweet & Savory is a great place for crepes in Port Jeff.

Thank you! We will definitely do that!
