Memorial Day weekend, widely regarded as the unofficial start of summer in the US, is the time when New Yorkers eagerly embark on their first trips to idyllic beach destinations like the Hamptons, Fire Island, and Nantucket.

These luxurious havens provide residents with an all-encompassing experience, allowing them to entertain friends and family while relishing in the joys of the long holiday weekend from the comfort of their homes.
