Bay Shore Marketing From Main Street to the Ferry Docks

South Shore University Hospital, a Northwell hospital on East Main Street, makes Bay Shore one of the main medical hubs on the South Shore. Specialists, imaging centers and rehab practices line the nearby roads and compete for the same patients. When someone searches for a cardiologist or an orthopedist near Bay Shore, the map pack often shows several offices within a mile of each other.

Main Street runs through a downtown of restaurants and small shops, and Maple Avenue leads south to the Fire Island Ferries terminals that carry beachgoers to Ocean Beach and neighboring communities from spring into fall. Bay Shore also has a large Latino community, with many families from Central and South America. Businesses that market in both Spanish and English, and adjust for the ferry crowd, get more out of the same budget.
