Parking & access

Confirm the exact Montauk-side access and opposite endpoint locally. The forum warns that some East End runs have county/town resident parking restrictions.

“Progression Project forum local guidance names a favorite East End run that travels either to or from Montauk. Nor'easters and strong westerlies are identified as productive Long Island patterns, with fall a favorable period, but the opposite endpoint and route geometry are not disclosed. Montauk Lighthouse camera viewer checked 2026-08-03; page code identifies its first rotating feed as northside.mp4. Camera operates daily from nautical dawn to nautical dusk.”
