West Hampton Dunes is a small beach front community on the South Shore of Long Island. It is located entirely on a barrier island system that provides critical hurricane and storm protection to the mainland. In the 1960’s this area became known as the worst beach erosion problem in America.

A group of home owners banded together and after a long, bitter battle, the Village Of West Hamptons Dunes was born. A beach restoration project was put into action and the village blossomed into a thriving and vibrant coastal community.
