westhampton: Silver Sands in Westhampton Beach - 04/24/10 11:35 PM
WESTHAMPTON BEACH has long been know for its gorgeous silver sandy beaches. One of the few commercial hotels on the beach is the Bath And Tennis Hotel. Built in the early 50's, it's interesting to note that the description of the silver sands still holds true today.
The Bath and Tennis Club was built in 1953 and opened for business on Decoration Day May 30, 1954. The announcement brochure read as follows: " Announcing the BATH AND TENNIS CLUB OF WESTHAMPTON BEACH, LI. Designed and destined to be the show place of the fashionable Hamptons, this handsome and luxurious Bath and Tennis Club … (4 comments)

westhampton: The Sea and Monarch Butterflies - 03/29/10 01:47 PM

The sea defines Westhampton New York. The wide stretch of white sand that runs along its southern border is the place where its people have been coming for hundreds of years to play, work, socialize, and be alone. The power and beauty of the ocean waves are life-sustaining forces, as is the sense of peaceful solitude that comes with being in such a primeval place, with the seagulls, the sea breezes, and September's monarch butterflies.

westhampton: Historic Quiogue, A Special Hamptons Place - 02/20/10 05:14 AM
 
 
 
Quiogue is a little known piece of “the Hamptons,” often confused with Quogue. A very special place, Quiogue is a one-square-mile peninsula situated between the villages of Westhampton Beach and Quogue. There is no town center and the zip code is 11978, which means all the mail is processed thru Westhampton Beach.
 
Indians inhabited Quiogue three hundred and fifty years ago, and the first white settlers to refer to the area as Quiogue were the Fosters in 1707. By the mid-1800s, Quiogue had become a center of clergymen and professors from New York. The Brooklyn Eagle on … (1 comments)
