Christmas & Holiday Lighting in Rocky Point

Rocky Point is the old radio-station hamlet on the Sound — a bungalow colony that became a year-round town, a small Broadway of shops, and the pine barrens forest behind it. Between the Rocky Point beach and Route 25A at Rocky Point the housing shifts from 1920s and '30s summer bungalows converted to year-round homes to bluff-top and beach-block homes above the Sound, with 1960s and '70s ranches and Colonials on the wooded lots near Rocky Point beach in between — three different jobs for a lighting crew.

North wind off Long Island Sound is the main enemy of a display here — exposed rooflines need wind-rated clips, and bluff lots need careful access planning. The Sound-facing roofline gets the wind-rated kit; the bluff side gets a ladder plan, not improvisation. Bungalows have low rooflines and deep porches — porch outlines and a lit doorway do more than a tall display.
