Napeague Lane Beach parking and permits

Napeague Lane Beach is a bay-side landing on Napeague for walking and permitted four-wheel-drive access. The Town of East Hampton lists it as open year-round, with no lifeguards and swimming prohibited. Parking requires a Town permit; there is no daily option posted.

The distinctive rule here is physical: no vehicles are permitted beyond the eastern boundary of the road at all times. A drive-on pass lets you reach designated sand but not past that boundary. Read the Town’s driving permit page before you load the truck.

Other rules on the Town page

• No camping and no littering.
• Dogs controlled at all times and waste picked up.
• Beach fire regulations apply.
• Use is at your own risk.

This is a bay landing in Amagansett. Visitors without a Town permit should look at Hither Hills State Park, where a vehicle use fee replaces the permit. Conditions are on Hamptons Beach Day.
