As of the 2020 census, Lloyd Harbor had a population of 3,571.

In 1654, the Matinecock Native Americans sold 3,000 acre of what is now called Lloyd Neck to English settlers from Oyster Bay. The Matinecock referred to the region as Caumsett ("place by sharp rock"). In 1676, James Lloyd acquired the neck, which was then taken over by his son Henry. Henry Lloyd farmed the land and erected a house, which still survives in Caumsett State Park. After his death in 1763, his son Joseph built the Joseph Lloyd Manor House, which he was forced to abandon by the British during the Revolutionary War. The British built several fortifications in the neck, including Fort Franklin. Henry Lloyd IV was the last Lloyd to own the estate, in 1841. In the 1880s, it became a stop for steamboats coming from New York City, bringing tourists and wealthy New Yorkers. In 1886, Lloyd's Neck – which was then part of the town of Oyster Bay in Queens County, and was previously known as Queens Village – was set off and separated from Queens County and annexed to the town of Huntington in Suffolk County. The 1900s ushered the era of the Long Island Gold Coast, and various wealthy families began to buy land and build seaside mansions and estates. These included William Matheson, Marshall Field III, Ronald Conklin, Harold Dimppel, Sr., Ferdinand Eberstadt and George McKesson.

In 1926 – about the time plans were being discussed to incorporate Downtown Huntington as a village or city, Lloyd Neck and West Neck became incorporated as a single municipality, which was named Lloyd Harbor; its boundaries were coterminous with those of the Lloyds Neck and West Neck school districts (since absorbed by the modern-day Cold Spring Harbor Central School District). The village incorporated in order for its residents to govern their community more directly and successfully through home rule, in order to provide better municipal services, preserve the area's country-like setting, and better control land uses and development in the manner through which they deemed most appropriate. Furthermore, the desire to establish a municipal police department was especially noted as a reason for incorporating – in part due to an issue pertaining to bootleggers using the harbor as a haven for their rum-running operations. Following a referendum vote on the matter of incorporating, Lloyd Harbor officially incorporated as a village on August 16, 1926.

In the 1930s, the village annexed additional land from unincorporated Cold Spring Harbor to its southwest – including the estate of industrialist Walter Jennings, (at his request), after the New York Court of Appeals entered judgment in the village's favor in a lawsuit on the matter in 1934. Robin Gibb, Charles Lindbergh, Jerry Seinfeld and Billy Joel have each lived on the Neck for a time. Currently many of these estates have been adapted for other uses. Marshall Field III's estate is now Caumsett State Historic Park, and the Conklin estate is a Roman Catholic seminary. Others have become a county park and a wildlife refuge. Charles Robertson's estate is now the Banbury Center, a small conference center of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. In 1960, the Village of Lloyd Harbor opened Lloyd Harbor Village Park, located along the eastern shore of Cold Spring Harbor. In 1969, the Long Island Lighting Company proposed locating a nuclear power plant in the community. Local opposition quickly defeated the plan, with Ferdinand Eberstadt donating his 80 acre estate to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to become Target Rock National Wildlife Refuge.

Lloyd Harbor is surrounded on three sides by water. It is bordered by Cold Spring Harbor and Oyster Bay to its west; the Long Island Sound to its north; and Huntington Bay to its east. Lloyd Harbor, itself, is located within the boundaries of the village, between Lloyd Neck and West Neck.

The Lloyd Sand Member of the Raritan Formation is a geological unit named after Lloyd Neck (located within present-day Lloyd Harbor), where it was first discovered. Similarly, the Lloyd Aquifer – a related, confined aquifer contained within the Lloyd Sand unit – derives its name from that unit and thus, ultimately, Lloyd Neck. Both the Lloyd Aquifer and the Lloyd Sand underly much of Long Island and parts of the Outer Barrier to its immediate south; the Lloyd Sand is also present beneath parts of New Jersey. Meanwhile, the Raritan Formation underlies much of the coastal Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, as part of the Atlantic Coastal Plain. • Illustration — A beach in Lloyd Harbor
