From the moment you board the ferry or one of the frequent flights to Martha's Vineyard, it's clear you're embarking on a special journey. You begin to decompress as you travel to a place rich in history, inspiration, creativity, and beauty. Martha's Vineyard is located just 7 miles off of Cape Cod, surrounded by Vineyard and Nantucket Sounds to the North and the North Atlantic Ocean to the South.
Among the island's towns, you're sure to find the Vineyard that's right for you. With stately Greek revival houses dating back to the whaling era of the early 19th century, Edgartown is a seaside village of boutique shopping and pristine harbor views. For more of a "beach town" feel, Oak Bluffs has the Flying Horses carousel, an arcade and an easy walk to the beach, plus the history and charm of the "gingerbread" houses in the Methodist campgrounds. Vineyard Haven offers visitors a blend of both. For a real retreat, Chilmark/Aquinnah is the place to get away from it all. In the off-season, the island is quieter and far less crowded, but the shore is always beautiful. Whenever you visit, leave your car behind! Cabs are plentiful and greet the incoming ferries to help you reach your destination. Most visitors prefer to explore the island on a bicycle, scooter or tourist-friendly public buses.
