The non-resident beach passes allow people that do not homes in the Village of East Hampton, to park at the beach. They are a coveted prize to anybody that is renting out here for the summer.

The sales of the passes are also a good benchmark on whether or not the summer season in the Hamptons will be busy, and I hate to admit it, but it’s painfully accurate.

It’s going to be one very, very good summer.

Let’s just hope that there aren’t too many “Speedo Guys” this year.
