Sag Harbor
Artsy, walkable, the writers' village.artsy · walkable · literary · indieShowHide
artsy · walkable · literary · indie
An old whaling port that became the Hamptons' bohemian alternative. Walkable Main Street, Windmill Park and John Steinbeck Waterfront Park on the harbor front, the cinema. Writers and editors live here; Steinbeck got a park out of it. Faces north onto the bay, so the light is different.
Good for: Walking after dinner, the cinema, harborside drinks.
Skip if: You came for ocean swims (the bay beaches are calm but not surfy).
