The Hamptons


Southampton College is surrounded by pristine bays and harbors and some of the country's most exquisite beaches. The Hamptons is one of the most beautiful and culturally rich resort areas in the country.

Visitors come from around the globe to enjoy the unique combination of rural charm and jet-set sophistication of New York's Eastern Long Island. The Hamptons are a haven for celebrated artists, writers and leaders of the entertainment and business worlds.

Summer weather is typically sunny and warm during the day, with a lovely ocean breeze. Nights are usually cool, with temperatures in the mid- to high- sixties.

In addition to the shops, restaurants and galleries in nearby Southampton, the towns of Sag Harbor, Bridgehampton and East Hampton are twenty to thirty minutes away, and offer additional charming, imaginative stores.

Southampton is ninety miles from New York City, and accessible by car, bus, train, ferry or plane.
