The Suffolk County Park Police was a law enforcement agency in Suffolk County, New York. Officers were sworn in as police officers under New York state law.

The department was responsible for policing the largest local government park system in the United States - 46,000 acres (190 km) of parkland. The department covered 14 major parks, four golf courses, four marinas, seven camping facilities, more than 200 historic structures, two equestrian centers, four lifeguard protected beaches with 15 miles (24 km) of ocean front, picnic facilities for 20,000 people, and more than 600 miles (970 km) of nature trails.

On October 7, 2014, the Suffolk County Park Police was absorbed into the Suffolk County Police Department. All personnel from the Parks Police are now employed with the County Police.
