Dock wisdom

·

Montauk Marine Basin is the biggest sport fishing operation on the East Coast. Book charter fishing weeks ahead in peak season.

·

The bluefin tuna fishery at Montauk runs July and August -- the trips sell out by June, sometimes earlier.

·

Whale watches run from late May through October. Humpbacks are most reliable in June and September.

·

Fort Pond kayaking is the calm-water option when the Atlantic surf is too big for beginners.
