 Montauk
- New York .com is the premier online guide to Montauk, New York - a hamlet in
Suffolk County on the South Shore of Long Island. It is the easternmost area in
Long Island, and thus the easternmost area in New York State.Montauk is considered a beach resort, using its position at the tip of Long Island to promote itself as "The Living End" or "The Last Resort" and has become one of the busiest tourist locations within the town of East Hampton. The small town is host to many restaurants, bed and breakfasts, and hotels and is a popular vacation spot in the warm weather months. Such accommodations are rarer elsewhere in the Hamptons. Many of the Montauk hotels are only open April through November, some for shorter time periods, while a few serve fishermen and other customers year round. Lake Montauk, a small bay on the north side of town, is home to a US Coast Guard station and a small fishing fleet, both commercial and recreational.

From west to east they are : Hither Hills State Park- Hither Hills State Park offers visitors scenic picnic areas and fireplaces, sport fishing, a sandy ocean beach, playing fields, a playground and a 168-site campground on the ocean. Anglers can fish year-round and obtain permits to fish at night. Shadmoor State Park- Ninety-nine acre Shadmoor State Park, located one quarter-mile east of Montauk Village, features more than 2,400 feet of ocean beach accessed by two stairways. The park, named for its open, rolling geography and the shadbush that grows there, also has bluffs, freshwater wetlands that are part of the preserve, hiking trails and elevated platforms for birdwatching and enjoying the shoreline views. Montauk Downs State Park- Montauk Downs State Park is best known for its Robert Trent Jones-designed, championship-length, 18-hole golf course.

It includes 1,288 feet of ocean frontage, several ponds and 54 acres of tidal and freshwater wetlands. Camp Hero State Park- Camp Hero State Park encompasses 415 acres of diverse landscape including heavily wooded areas, a long expanse of beachfront along the Atlantic Ocean, and an historic military installation. Specific features of Camp Hero are magnificent pristine maritime forests, freshwater wetlands, spectacular ocean vistas and dramatic bluffs rising from the beach. Montauk Point State Park - Montauk Point State Park, a heavily-wooded area on the eastern tip of Long Island and the historic Montauk Lighthouse, offers some of the best surf fishing in the world.
