[paulk]

Port Washington is a good spot to pull in after Hell Gate, though it can be a busy place. Northport is a bit further, but very pretty and well-protected. Northport YC is quite friendly for visiting yachts when we''ve been there, and is a pleasant walk to a small town with shops/stores/restaurants/galleries/ ice cream, etc. Huntington is a long way down a rather narrow channel lined with powerboats. We got eaten by bugs there as well.
