Montauk---yes. At the tip of Long Island. Beautiful there. I have stayed a couple of times at a beach motel in Montauk. Funny, they have a vacation community and year-round residents that make a living from the sea, and tourism. Long Island is a beautiful place. Fragile because we get our water from an aquifer, which is slowly becoming contaminated--not so slow in some places. Also, rising sea levels. Not where I am so much (pretty high elevation), but one day the south shore will be gone.

Well, that's more than you wanted to know, isn't it? :))
