Ponquogue Beach, Southampton

Nice beach but bathrooms were locked on a beautiful Saturday in the early afternoon. Nowhere else nearby to go. Not cool. Are dog supposed to be leashed? Because a few weren't and I didn't see signage. Lovely place to hang out as long as you're cool squatting behind a dune when nature calls and aren't scared of unleashed dogs. It's fun watching the surfers.

**Get a parking permit cause non resident pays 400 dollars** Other than that! It's a beautiful beach, can't believe it really, i thought all beaches in NY are like not paradise beaches however this one made that statement truly false. The water was pristine, it was clear, it was blue, not a lot of seaweed, not a lot of foam. People are very respectful of your space. Like throw the disc awayyyy from everyone reading books and bathing in the sun. Its really chill, quaint, quiet. You can ultimately decompress here and just reflect. Dip your toes in the sand, go into the water (the current was strong, be careful of undertoes) and just Reeelax. Highly recommend coming here. Also take good photos ;)

Awesome place Great waves Favorite at 5am great sun rise

Clean white sand. Plenty parking area. $30/day parking. Clean bathrooms and changing rooms. Ladies room had about 4 changing rooms. 4 total Showers outside. Bathroom closes at 5pm. Lifeguards on site but they leave at 5pm. Long shoreline, beautiful. The day I went was sunny but windy so ocean was wavy. Watch the wind forecast. I recommend all beaches along that coastline. Minimum seaweeds on the shore. Clean shore.

First time there, during the pandemic. At first I was really impressed The water was a little dirty but we enjoyed it anyway. The only problem I had is with the people who were sitting all over each other with absolutely NO SOCIAL DISTANCING! It’s extremely important during this time and unfortunately my bf and I had to move twice because people were all over our space. I mean, there are so many signs for keeping up with the social distancing, and still people don’t Follow it.
