Hidden Pond Park is a place to cool off with a quick dip in the pool during a hot summer day. Owned by the town of Islip, the park has three pools: the children's pool is 3 feet at its deepest; the main pool ranges in depth from 4 to 10 feet; and the diving pool features two boards and a safety depth of 30 feet. Swim lessons -- ranging from water basics to Red Cross lifeguard certification -- are available here. Hidden Pond Parks also boasts a removed picnic area with two baseball diamonds, a volleyball court and fun-in-the-sun athletic fields.
