As a cornerstone community of the famous Hamptons, Westhampton Beach is one of the most in-demand coastal communities on Long Island. High-end apartments, condos, and houses fill much of the inland landscape, and the center of town features a thriving cluster of shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues along Main Street. Enjoy your morning coffee on the porch of Post Stop Café, catch a show at the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center, or treat yourself with the upscale New American fare at Starr Boggs. The namesake beach is positioned on a barrier island, separated from the mainland (and the rest of town) by Moneyboque Bay. The beach tends to be the most popular area among visitors, and features numerous high-end condos and rental houses.
