Your North Fork Experience Starts Here
Orient Beach State Park stretches along a narrow peninsula between the Long Island Sound and Gardiner’s Bay, offering one of the most scenic and uncrowded stretches of shoreline in the region. Further west, the beaches along the Sound in Southold and Mattituck are ideal for an easy morning walk before a slow breakfast back at the house.
Orient Beach and Kenny’s Beach in Southold offer calm, sheltered swimming that is perfect for families and anyone who prefers the quieter side of the water. Goldsmith’s Inlet County Park in Peconic is a local favorite, tucked away from the summer crowds and well worth the short walk down to the shore. Spend the afternoon on the sand and return to your Luxury Beach Getaway home as the light softens over the bay.
Paddle through the Peconic Bay, explore the tidal creeks around Mattituck Inlet, or cast a line on one of the many fishing charters that run seasonally from Greenport Harbor. The North Fork’s sheltered waters make it one of the best spots on Long Island for kayaking, paddleboarding, and clamming. After a full day on the water, your Luxury Beach Getaway home is the perfect place to recharge.
The North Fork Wine Trail winds through more than 30 wineries, from Bedell Cellars in Cutchogue to Paumanok Vineyards in Aquebogue, each one worth an afternoon stop. For dinner, The Frisky Oyster in Greenport or Love Lane Kitchen in Mattituck make for a memorable night out. East End Arts in Riverhead and the many working studios scattered across the North Fork round out a cultural scene that punches well above its size.
Southampton and East Hampton offer great dining, galleries, and boutiques. Sag Harbor is worth a visit for its beautiful main street and historic harbor. Montauk has a relaxed, surf-town energy at the tip of the South Fork. Each town is a short drive from your Luxury Beach Getaway home, making it easy to explore a different one every day.
