Road D is one of the Village’s lettered road-end accesses, the simplest kind of beach: a road end, a path over the dune and the Atlantic. There are no lifeguards, no published hours and no amenities, so the useful questions are practical. Is the tide high or low? Is the wind onshore? Do you have water and a plan for the trash?
It sits about one and three-quarter miles west of Halsey Neck Lane, with Road G, the next lettered road end, farther west. Road D pairs naturally with Road G Beach for a longer day, and with Cooper’s Beach when someone wants a lifeguard.
Swim at your own risk. Southampton Village Ocean Rescue, a volunteer group dispatched through 911, answers calls on the unguarded beaches. Parking and permits are on Hamptons Beach Pass. See all Southampton beaches.
