Westhampton Dunes is a barrier island that was once a part of Fire Island until a nor'easter in the 1930s split the island. Today, it's a lovely stretch of white sand beaches with prime real estate along Dune Road. Living along this prized stretch often means walking down your private walkway across the dunes to savor your place in the sand. Nearby Westhampton Beach village has all the amenities residents could need, from cute boutiques and cafes, to groceries and a world-class arts center.
