Guide
Good to know
Come for September swimming and waves
Water is still warm in September with excellent wave conditions for a genuine beach experience.
Expect a quieter, more exclusive atmosphere
This is primarily a local resident beach surrounded by expensive homes with fewer tourists than other Hamptons beaches.
Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 2 visitors · 2016–2026
Parking requires a Town permit
Only seasonal passes are sold, not daily passes, so non-residents must obtain advance authorization.
Visit in April or off-season
The beach is cleanest and quietest before summer crowds arrive and the party crowd shows.
Wear water shoes for rocky bottom
The beach has rocks and shells that require footwear protection when entering and exiting the water.
