Suffolk County Police said the aircraft suffered a power failure mid-flight and the 60-year-old male pilot was forced to put it down on the sand.
The plane landed safely and neither the pilot nor his 59-year-old female passenger was injured.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating.
