Why The Hamptons?

The Hamptons' guys-trip angle: a tee time at Montauk Downs, a blue-water fishing charter out of Star Island, and a back-porch cigar after a steak at 1770 House.

The 3-Day Plan

Day 1 — Arrival

Land, settle, first round

  • Afternoon: Fly into ISP (Long Island MacArthur Airport) — 60 minutes from the core. Drop bags at Gurney's Montauk Resort & Seawater Spa.
  • Dinner: Nick & Toni's (Italian Steakhouse, $$$$). East Hampton steak + pasta institution — celebs, locals, and a real crew-dinner room
  • Night: Ease in at The Surf Lodge — Montauk's iconic waterfront lodge hosts live music on the dock every summer evening — the single best place to watch the sun drop into Fort Pond Bay. Keep it reasonable; Saturday is the main event.
Day 2 — The Main Event

Signature activity into heavy night

  • Afternoon: Montauk Surf Lesson (2 hours, $95–$130/pp). Group surf lesson at Ditch Plains Beach with instructors who specialize in making beginners look comfortable on a board within an hour.
  • Dinner: Nick & Toni's (East Hampton) (Italian-Mediterranean, $$$$) — The Hamptons institution since 1988 — wood-fired Tuscan cooking and a regulars list that includes everyone who's anyone from June to Labor Day.
  • Night: Ruschmeyer's (balanced, $$$) — Bohemian Montauk motor lodge turned summer cocktail destination with a campfire pit, string lights, and an effortlessly cool crowd.
Day 3 — Recovery & Departure

Brunch and roll out

  • Brunch: Pierre's (Bridgehampton) (French Bistro, $$$) — Classic French bistro that locals swear by for weekend brunch — croque madame, a brilliant Bloody Mary, and a sun-drenched patio.
  • Optional: Private Chef Cooking Class (3 hours) — A Hamptons private chef leads the group through a seasonal coastal menu — fresh pasta, local clams, dessert — then everyone sits down and eats it together.
  • Departure: Head to ISP. Plan on 60 minutes to the airport plus a 90-minute TSA buffer on a Sunday.
