Watch: Montauk Chamber of Commerce Releases Promotional Video 'This is Montauk'

The Montauk Chamber of Commerce recently released a promotional video, “This is Montauk.”

The video was directed by Montauk native James Katsipis with cinematography by Nate Best and James Katsipis and produced by Tauk Is Cheap Productions.

The video follows a local family - Charles, a charter boat captain, Abby, a yoga instructor and their three youngsters - as they spend the day bike riding, surfing, fishing and more in Montauk.

“This film shows the true Montauk for visitors,” Laraine Creegan, executive director of the chamber said.“We want people to see and experience Montauk the way we do.”

The Chamber moved up the release date after several locals complained last month that visitors were disrupting Montauk’s quality of life this summer.

“It is a beautiful community with a unique character and a very special quality of life,” Creegan said. “We are happy to share this magical place with our visitors and guests and encourage everyone when they visit to please respect the beauty and character of Montauk, a place we call home.”

The community recently got together to find solutions to the discourteous and illegal behaviors taking place recently in the late night hours on weekends, according to the Chamber.

“The Chamber is addressing the comfort and safety concerns of its residents and visitors by continuing to update its hospitality business members about town codes and by facilitating ongoing communication between business owners, visitors, residents and local government,” Paul Monte, president of the Chamber said. “Additionally, the Chamber supports East Hampton Town Supervisor Cantwell as well as the members of the Town Board and the East Hampton Town Police in ensuring adequate police presence and enforcement efforts for town code violations as is necessary.”
