The Hamptons. It’s the obvious summer destination for New York City’s jet-sets and power players. It’s where the A-listers go to show off their sun-kissed skin, dine at the top restaurants and attend the summer’s exclusive parties and fundraisers. It’s all so glamorous until you consider one vital aspect of your getaway…

How will you get there?

If you’re one of the lucky few to summer in the Hamptons, you treasure your weekends out East. Dealing with upwards of four hours of traffic on the L.I.E just isn’t an option.

The Whale, seaplane

Let us present The Whale: a top-notch transportation service, flying you via seaplane from Manhattan’s East River to East Hampton in just 30 minutes. 
Feeling a bit more exotic? The Whale also flies in the Caribbean and is the world’s first amphibious carrier to operate in Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands.

Did I mention the seaplane used to be owned by Jimmy Buffet?
