Shelter Island Beach Guide 2013
The Hamptons have something for everybody who loves the fresh air while and the wonderful little towns and villages that have great shopping and arts. Without question however, the pristine beaches are one of the main reasons why people head out to the East End.
It can get tricky when you want to visit a beach out here. The villages and towns all have different, heavily enforced parking rules and regulations, and sometimes you don’t know if a beach has a lifeguard before you go.
