Favorite Beach
Our favorite family beach is just 2 miles away from the house! Walk or drive over the Ponquogue Bridge and the beach pavilion is straight ahead. There is a parking fee of $50 for non-residents. There is a snack bar and lifeguards on site.

Dockers is a great restaurant with amazing views! Tables are situated almost on a dock, facing the bay. The sunsets are incredible here, and there is also an area for kayaks and paddle boarding. There is fine dining and also a food truck for a more relaxed (and less expensive) way to have a meal and enjoy the views and cool vibe.

This restaurant is awesome for several reasons- it's a beautiful place and it's at the end of Dune Road so the views are amazing, especially at sunset. The food and service are excellent, and it has a beautiful indoor and outdoor bar area. There is usually live music outdoors. Enjoy a cocktail and an app at the outside bar when the sun is setting over the bay and the boats...just beautiful!

This is the 'sister' restaurant to Cowfish- it is smaller and has a Caribbean relaxed vibe with great drinks! You can dine or have a drink outside by the beach, and take the Rum Barge to Cowfish and back for the views and a fun boat ride.

Want to grab some fresh seafood after the beach and cook at home? This place is so convenient to grab and go- used to be called Cor-J's, now called Lighthouse. Also highly recommend Out of the Blue Seafood- located on Montauk Hw near Cowfish. Amazing prepared seafood dishes to go- get some lobster salad and rolls to make sandwiches at the beach!
