Montauk - Long Island NY

Hoping to get out to Montauk this summer.  My Anguilla Buddy, Bankie Banx will be entertaining at The Surf Lodge in August.   One of my buddies, Mark Evans DM, hangs out at The Surf Lodge whenever he visits Montauk.

Montauk is on on the east end of Long Island. It’s a sleepy fishing village with a beautiful coastline.  Montauk is a major tourist destination and has six state parks. It’s about 125 miles from New York City heading east. The people of Montauk, from business people, deep-sea fishermen, surfers, artists, actors, and others, all share a deep love for the area.

THE SURF LODGE, is located on Fort Pond in Montauk.  It’s a 1/2 mile from the beach and sits on a breathtaking pond where the sunsets are gorgeous. It’s a really cool place.  Easy to check it out online – just click here!

Facts about Montauk:
Montauk is a hamlet within the Town of East Hampton. It is in Suffolk County, New York on the South Shore of Long Island.

Montauk is a major tourist destination and it boasts six state parks. It is particularly famous for its fishing (claiming to have more world saltwater fishing records than any other port in the world)and surfing.

Montauk is considered a beach resort, using its position at the tip of Long Island to promote itself as “The Living End” or “The Last Resort” and become one of the busiest tourist locations within the town of East Hampton. The small town is host to many restaurants, bed and breakfasts, and hotels and is a popular vacation spot in the warm weather months. Such accommodations are rarer elsewhere in the Hamptons. Many of the Montauk hotels are only open April through November, some for shorter time periods, while a few serve fishermen and other customers year round, including the famed Gurney’s Inn.

The Montauk Point Lighthouse was the first lighthouse in New York state and is the fourth oldest active lighthouse in the United States.
