My husband and I have been going to Montauk alone every summer for a few years. It has become “our place”. We just love the laid-back beach vibes, the amazing food, and of course the fact that you are surrounded by the ocean. Every year when we go, we see many families enjoying the town and we say to ourselves, “maybe we should bring the kids?” Then we snap back into reality and realize what a gift it is to have this alone time together. This summer, we found ourselves in the Hamptons visiting friends and decided to take a trip to Montauk with our boys and they fell in love with it as quickly as we did.
