The entire business district of the whaling port and writer's colony is listed as Sag Harbor Village District on the National Register of Historic Places. Husband and I were having an appetizer and cocktails at an upscale restaurant called Dopo La Spiiaggia when we noticed the park across the street. When we were done we took a stroll through the memorial park. It's a clean safe park where families were riding bikes, exercising, playing frisbee, having picnics and casually walking and chatting. The marina right on the edge of the park is peaceful, tranquil and beautiful. This village is very dog friendly but pets are not allowed in this park and I am confessed as to why not. I love and appreciate Sag Harbor, it has a very impressive history.
