'The Waves For Water"' Benefit at Sole East Was as Cool as It Gets in Montauk

“This is a pretty good party,” I said to David Ceva, the owner of Sole East in Montauk who held a party/fundraiser to benefit the Waves for Water Hurricane Sandy Relief Initiative at his hotel over the weekend.

The party included an outdoor barbecue and surf movies outside on Sole East‘s massive lawn area. There were blankets, teak chairs and surfers hanging out everywhere. The BBQ dinner was catered by The Backyard Restaurant and the food was about as perfect as it gets. Even legendary surfing filmmaker Philip Mansfield was there enjoying some BBQ.

Montauk photographer and surfer James Katsipis said hello as three girls from London, Lucy Francis, Sophie Nevin and Candice O’Brien laughed the night away.

I was impressed by the turnout. Sole East is a great spot.
