Wantagh Avenue is a major, 5.73-mile (9.22 km) road in Nassau County, on Long Island, New York, between Wantagh and Levittown. Currently owned and maintained by the Nassau County Department of Public Works for most of its length as the unsigned Nassau County Route 189, the road was formerly owned and maintained by the New York State Department of Public Works (and later by NYSDOT) as New York State Route 115 from c. 1932 until July 1, 1972.

A small, disconnected segment of Wantagh Avenue also exists south of the Wantagh Parkway as a Town of Hempstead-maintained residential street.
