Found Radios on Jones Beach Boardwalk

I was walking the Jones Beach Boardwalk around 6:45 p.m. yesterday when I found two radios left on a bench near the concession stand by the amphitheater. One is a gray handheld with an antenna; the other is a black base model with a cracked display and a loose belt clip. I kept them for a moment, thinking someone might be missing them, and hoped they'd be reunited through this post. If the owner recognizes them, I hope they’ll be able to claim them on the site.

Lost tank accessories on Jones Beach

On Sunday around 5:30 pm I realized my tank accessories were missing after packing up from a short dive at Jones Beach Boardwalk. The sun was dipping low, the salt air buzzing, and the waves hissed as I walked toward my car. My backup regulator and a spare valve had been left in a mesh bag by the lifeguard stand. They’re essential for my weekend dive trip, and losing them has me stressed more than a little. If you found a black mesh bag with a regulator and two hoses near the snack bar, please drop a note on the site.

Found GPS devices on Long Island, NY

I was walking my dog near the Hicksville LIRR Station around 2:45 PM on Saturday when I spotted a small zippered case sitting on a bench. Inside were several GPS devices, tangled cords, and a frayed charger. A sticker with a Long Island address on the case made me think the owner isn’t far away. I picked everything up and brought it home to keep it safe, posting here so the owner can recognize these items and get them back. If you’re reading this, I’ve held onto them and will pass them along through the site if the owner comes forward.

Found: Equipment for Various Sports on Long Island

On Saturday at 6:20 p.m., I found Equipment for Various Sports tucked behind a row of beach chairs near the Jones Beach State Park entrance on Long Island. A basketball, two tennis rackets, and a gym bag with a water bottle were all in a messy pile, still warm from the sea breeze. It looked like a late-in-the-day pickup game had just ended and someone forgot their stuff. I brought it to the park office and hoped the rightful owner would see this listing. It feels comforting to think the gear might be reunited with its owner soon.

Found wrist watches on the Jones Beach boardwalk

I found a wrist watch lying on the Jones Beach boardwalk around 2:15 PM this past Saturday. It’s a silver-faced watch with a black leather strap and a small scratch near the stem, clearly not mine. I checked nearby benches and trash cans, then asked a few walkers if anyone belonged to it, but no one appeared with an owner. I’m posting this because I’d want someone to claim it if it were theirs, and I hope the rightful owner sees this and can reclaim it through the site.
