Welcome to East Hampton

A sophisticated seaside village with iconic beaches
 
With easy, natural beauty and some of the most iconic beaches in the world, East Hampton, NY is a coveted place to call home. Founded in 1648, this upscale locale is full of historic buildings and legendary streets, most of which are on the National Register of Historic Places. The tree-lined streets and quaint cottages offer an idyllic slice of old-world charm and a sense of stepping away from modern life, while still maintaining an exceptional level of luxury. One of the oldest towns in America, East Hampton was founded in 1648 by farmers and fishermen from Connecticut, in search of a better life for their families. Today, residents do much the same, although perhaps for very different reasons. This is the place to feel the ocean breeze and hear the waves lapping the shore, rather than the blaring of city traffic. 
 
East Hampton’s artistic flair is deep-rooted, and the town boasts illustrious art galleries, theaters, and screenings to keep its residents entertained. Fall brings Hollywood to East Hampton, with the Hamptons International Film Festival each fall, and the village is buzzing year-round with boutiques, shops, and gourmet restaurants.
