New Harbor
The Great Salt Pond has a culture all its own, centered on the three marinas, several inns, a resort hotel, and the restaurants clustered along its southern shore that make up this commercial area about a 30-minute walk from Old Harbor. Up to 2,000 boats create a forest of masts on summer weekends, drawn by sail races and fishing tournaments. Over on the quiet north and east shores, clammers and windsurfers claim the tidal flats. The Montauk ferry docks at Champlin's, the largest of the marinas.
