About
That no bridge connects Fisher Island to the mainland is no oversight — it is precisely the point. Spanning 216 acres, this private island holds the title of America's wealthiest zip code, with average household income exceeding $2 million, and its ferry-only access is what makes such rarefied seclusion possible. Mediterranean-style residences, a world-class golf course, a pristine private beach, and the legendary Vanderbilt mansion club shape daily life here. Tennis courts, a full-service spa, a marina, and a helipad round out a self-contained realm of luxury that grants total privacy and exclusivity to those who demand it.
