Love to go out there every year for a couple of days. Had dinner at Inlet Seafood and got to watch the blessing of the fleet.

Montauk Lighthouse is in New York I'm guessing?

Could you give me a heads up on a place to stay? I have three mini-trips I would like to take this summer, that being one of them. I would only need one night since I live less than 5 hours from there. The other two mini-trips will be to Erie, PA to take in some light houses around the Great Lakes and to Cape May for the Lighthouses there, the salt marshes, and the gingerbread houses. I will only stay one night each place since all are fairly close to home.

Thanks,
Mike

North-east end, not South-west end.

Correct. I didn’t state which end. Just the end. I meant the northernmost end (Northeast.) farthest away from NYC

Very nice!! I like your use of foreground elements. This makes it a totally different view from any of the others I've seen.

Assuming SEPA=Southeastern Pennsylvania and in Audubon Pa then Montauk is due east of you. About 4 hrs away. In New York State on Long Island Here’s a map. It’s the point at the right hand end of the blue line

This is a beautiful capture of Montauk Light. I don't think anything would be lost from straightening the lighthouse a tad.

Bridges, the Montauk Lighthouse is located on the eastern most point of the south fork on Long Island. Count on the possibility of a more than 5 hour drive especially with summer beach traffic and the dreaded summer traffic through the Hamptons. There are many hotels in Montauk but you’d have to look online to find availability. If it were possible to spend 1 more night there, you might enjoy one of the whale watch or lighthouse cruises that leave from Montauk each day. Enjoy your mini vacation.

Very nice photo! I hope you don't mind if I post this photo I took from my plane back in 1987. Not sharp because I had to shoot through a curved plexiglass window, and this is a copy of the photo I just took with my phone.
