Ponquogue Beach Live Surf Cam, Hampton Bays, New York
About this camera
Hamptons.com brings you a live surf cam from the Ponquogue Beach Pavilion at 280 Dune Road in Hampton Bays, New York, on the barrier beach of Long Island's South Shore.
Ponquogue Beach is a town beach of Southampton, reached by crossing the Ponquogue Bridge over Shinnecock Bay. It has a modern pavilion with a snack bar, showers and lifeguards in summer, and a wide stretch of sand facing the open Atlantic. A short drive to the east is Shinnecock Inlet, home to a commercial fishing fleet and one of the best-known surf areas on Long Island, while to the west Dune Road runs along the barrier island toward Westhampton.
The surf here can be excellent when ocean swells arrive, especially in late summer and autumn during hurricane season, and the camera helps surfers judge the waves, wind and crowds before they head out. In summer, families come for swimming, fishing and sunsets over the bay.
Winter brings cold water, empty beaches and powerful nor'easters. The South Shore uses Eastern Time, and early mornings often offer the cleanest conditions.
The stream is provided by Hamptons Beach Cams.
