LOCAL INFO: Shelter Island is for those who seek respite from the noise and turmoil of city and suburban life. Careful zoning has preserved much of the Island’s rural character. The 35 mph speed limit plus the gentle pace of life bring the visitors back to a time many have thought was gone forever. If the Manhanset Indians could return through a time machine, they would experience some culture shock, but they would recognize this island sheltered by islands as the one they knew so many years ago.
