Top Long Island Motor Sports

Discover the legendary Hamptons on this self-guided tour through the oceanfront villages along the South Fork of Long Island. For centuries, these shores have drawn artists, writers, and presidents, yet the Hamptons remain rooted in a quieter history of Shinnecock native peoples, settlers, and whalers. Begin in Southampton, where white-columned estates line lanes, then drive east through farm stands and vineyards between the glamorous towns. Explore Sag Harbor's whaling heritage, stroll the tree-canopied main street of East Hampton where windmills from the 1600s still stand, and continue to wild Montauk, where a lighthouse has guarded the Atlantic since George Washington authorized its construction in 1796. Along the way, encounter world-class beaches, art museums, and nature preserves that make the Hamptons far more than a celebrity playground. This tour reveals the authentic character beneath the glitz — a place shaped by the sea, the land, and 4 centuries of American stories.
