Permit rules

Parking requires a Town of East Hampton parking permit; the Town lists no daily fee. A drive-on pass lets a vehicle onto designated areas only. Dogs must be controlled at all times and waste picked up.

The beach sits in the Town, outside East Hampton Village, so a Village permit does not apply. A summer renter who needs a Town sticker should read the East Hampton renter guide. More on East Hampton.
