"Located about two miles from Montauk’s center, Ditch Plains is prized for consistent surf and is one of the area’s best spots for surfing; non-surfers can explore nearby cliffs and sand dunes, grab lunch from a row of food trucks, and hike Rheinstein Park’s trails featuring wooden bridges, lily-pad ponds, and wildflower-dense fields." - Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner, Kat Chen
