While summer may soon come to a close Hampton Jitney plans to spice up this season by offering a new excursion to the beaches and beyond as well as seasonal day trips to popular destinations. As part of the new “I Love New York Bus” tourism initiative, Hampton Jitney is offering locals and tourists the chance to discover some of New York’s most popular attractions.

Whether visiting wine, beer and cider trails, seasonal festivals, or mountain ski destinations, there’s something for everyone to enjoy just a few hours outside the city. Listed below are just a few of the many seasonal trips offered.

Summer Excursions
Coopers Beach – Trade in your summer share and opt for the Southampton’s Coopers Beach. Counted among the nation’s top beaches and most popular South Fork attractions, this white-sand beach features a concession stand, chair and umbrella rentals, bathrooms with fresh water showers, and lifeguard stations.

Offered on Tuesday and Wednesday through August 26, 2015, and priced at $84 per person.

Taste of the Hamptons – Foodies and museum-goers will want to take advantage of this fun-filled day that includes a crafted itinerary complete with dining and discovery. From a docent tour of Watermill’s Parrish Art Museum, to wine tasting at Wolffer Estate Vineyards in Sagaponach, to strolling along the quaint streets of Sag Harbor, we’ve done all the planning for you. The day concludes over hor d’oeuvres and beer tastings at Southampton’s Publick House Brewery, and a quick pit stop at the Country Garden Farm Stand. Bus trips leave from NYC at 8 am and depart the Hamptons at 7:30 pm, and are priced at $199 per person.
