It can undoubtedly be arrogant to put “beach” in the name of your village, only to underwhelm in the sand by the ocean department. Thankfully, casual Westhampton Beach is blessed with the gift of shoreline, fully delivering on the promise of its name. Right over the bay, across the respective drawbridges at Jessup and Beach lanes, spectacular white sand beaches run along Dune Road. Cupsogue Beach County Park is situated on the far western end of the sandy strip, winning plaudits for its beauty, lack of crowds, and soft sands. Under two miles east, Pike’s Beach offers a similar secluded vibe with the bonus — for some — of no vendors. Still, the most popular, in-demand stretch of sand in Westhampton Beach is Rogers Beach. It is pretty much a straight shot off Beach Lane, enticing residents and visitors alike with the same ocean appeal, plus all the amenities.
