What is the best time to visit Montauk?
Hipcamp staff
The best time to visit Montauk is in early fall to beat the crowds while still enjoying nice weather. Winter is also a good time to enjoy a quiet getaway, though many shops and restaurants and most campgrounds are closed in the offseason. Surfing is allowed in the winter at Montauk Point State. Striped bass fishing season usually starts in late spring and lasts through the fall.
