On top of mjmaherjr's comments, I'd like to add that it gets pretty crowded there, so plan accordingly Desco.
friend of mine was driving out to east hampton from nyc thursday night of memorial day weekend and it took her over 5 hours to get there
I gotta try to get my brother to fly me out there in the police helicopter. lol
Guy across the street from my parents has the right idea. Leaves his cars out there and takes train to and from Manhattan. Parks them at his mom's house closer to the city in wintertime.
Sadly, you might even hit helicopter traffic -- they come flying over the Peconic nonstop headed down toward the ocean. Man, I need to hit the lottery Friday. :lol:
The noise from helicopters and small planes heading to the Hamptons is a nuisance. If you are in the flight path they spoil the quiet and serenity of the East End. Essentially it's the 0.1% ers flaunting wealth and not caring how annoying the noise pollution is for everyone else
You sound like an East End native or at the very least a homeowner on the north side of the South Fork. I've literally seen people at Foster Memorial Beach in Sag Harbor shaking their fists up at the sky when they fly overhead. :lol:
It has become way too much of a scene south of the highway, and gets more nauseating every summer. I love the ocean waves, but if I was filthy rich I'd be in North Haven and not in any of the Hamptons.
All good insights though
one doesn't have to be "filthy rich", rich, somewhat rich to reside in North Haven village just across the Sag Harbor bridge - there are some everyday people still around - I know a few...
(for those not familiar with the area Long Island's East End/ "the Hamptons" is like a fish tale top is north fork bottom being the so-called south fork - and Sag Harbor is on the north coast of the south fork...confusing I know...if you wants to see traffic, hear horns hunk, middle fingers rising, HBP, arguments visit only May through Labor Day when angry " tourists" arrive - sorry for being long winded - thank God we got a rich diversion from summer stress with SJU BBall!)
