Amagansett

Beautiful Atlantic Avenue Beach is the site of an annual Sand Castle Contest each summer.

Welcome to Amagansett

Amagansett, located between East Hampton and Montauk, is among the most popular hamlets in the Hamptons, offering pristine white, sandy beaches, magnificent oceanfront real estate, and historic Main Street with its restaurants and shops. Founded in 1680, Amagansett’s name derives from a Native American Montaukett word for “place of good water.” Amagansett still retains an emotional connection to the area’s original inhabitants. The Marine Museum, in a former Coast Guard station, is located on Bluff Road overlooking the ocean and houses exhibits on the history of whaling and fishing on eastern Long Island. Amagansett also offers hiking trails and nature preserves in the Amagansett National Wildlife Refuge and the Atlantic Double Dunes Preserve.
 
There are both ocean and bay beaches in Amagansett. Beautiful Atlantic Avenue Beach is the site of an annual Sand Castle Contest each summer, with groups of all ages participating. Residents-only Indian Wells Beach is low-key and popular with families. Both beaches have concession stands and bathrooms. Big Albert’s Landing Beach on Napeague Bay is a destination for families with children.
 
Amagansett attracts a diverse summer population of surfers and beach lovers, low-key celebrities, hipsters, and families. The small but flourishing business district offers great gourmet restaurants and coffee houses, casual eateries, a diversity of shops, and The Stephen Talkhouse, a popular music venue named for a Montaukett chief. From April to December the beloved Amagansett Farmers Market, currently operated by the Amagansett Food Institute, offers an array of products from area farmers, fishermen, and other local and regional food producers.
