We found it appropriate to immediately order frozen cocktails upon arrival as it would have felt wrong not to… More »

Surf Lodge Welcomes Fall With September Sessions

[Photo via tcolla] Surf Lodge is capping off their outdoor Surf Cinema series Sunday night with an oldie, but a definite goodie. This weekend’s film was released in 2002, but still considered by some to be one of the best of its’ kind. September Sessions is a documentary created by surfer/musician Jack Johnson who followed a group of pro surfers with a camera surfing the waves of the Sumatra Islands. Sure you can watch this flick at home, but why do that when you can catch surfing legends on the outdoor big screen while lounging in the sand by the water in Montauk. More »

In two years, construction will begin for his Timeship, a center for pioneering research to “indefinitely expand the healthy human life span.” Also on board this ship of life? Oh, just a  few near extinct species and some dead human bodies traveling to the future for “later re-animation”… Not. Kidding. It’s possible Mr. Valentine has seen one too many sci-fi flicks but either way, Hamptonites were ready to find out for themselves.
