The Hamptons are considered the ultimate Long Island destination, but locals in nearby Greenport, as well as tourists who stumble across this hidden gem on the North Fork, don’t usually mind that. Sleepy charm looks good on this beachside village right on the Peconic River. But with a thriving restaurant and arts scene, you also won’t run out of things to do.

Head east across Long Island, and you'll eventually reach Greenport, a quiet beachside town with the location, outdoor activities and great food to become your new favorite weekend escape.
