The houses, clubs, polo, benefits, and summer rituals that define the maximum-luxury Hamptons.
A private atlas in ten chapters.
88 places, rituals, and institutions—each grounded in public reporting, with no invented access.
Observational, not promotional. Named residents appear only when publicly reported by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Curbed, The Real Deal, Newsday, 27 East, James Lane Post, or Hamptons Magazine. Nothing here is invented.
Read it as social geography: what is public, what is private, and which institutions made the East End’s mythology.
The named lanes that the national real-estate press has tracked for three decades — the oceanfront spits, the Sagaponack potato-field drives, the Georgica hook. These cards carry no photograph: a lane is a public road, and we would rather show nothing than the wrong one.

Coastal Mediterranean restaurant at the EHP Resort & Marina, overlooking Three Mile Harbor — Italian, Greek, Spanish and Moroccan dishes, and a dock for guests arriving by boat. It is EHP's own restaurant, not an Amagansett address and not a Calissa sibling.

Charter operator of jets, turboprops and seaplanes in the northeast, with an East Hampton Airport presence. Its own site is a placeholder that points charter enquiries at chartersales@flytailwind.com and gives a Port Chester head office; it advertises no scheduled Manhattan–East Hampton seaplane route.
