We love Martha\u2019s Vineyard, it truly is an amazing place with great people, food, and sights. Quintessentially summer, and so much fun, we think Martha\u2019s Vineyard should be on everyone\u2019s getaway list. While you\u2019re on Martha\u2019s Vineyard there is so much to see and do that it might feel overwhelming if you don\u2019t have a plan. While we dock in Oak Bluffs there are 5 other towns on the island, and covering all of that ground is certainly a feat. We recommend taking it 1 or 2 towns at a time, and really taking it all in, but if you want our overall must-do\u2019s on the Vineyard, here they are!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While this natural wonder is not walkable from our terminal, it is absolutely worth the effort it takes to get there. Located on the westernmost tip of the island, Aquinnah Cliffs features a beautiful cliff drop-off with amazing views in every direction. The multi-colored breathtaking cliffs are surrounded by beautiful landscape, and drop off more than 100 feet into the ocean below. This special corner of the island has repeatedly been named the most beautiful place in Massachusetts. And for good reason! If you love great views, enjoy nature, or want to enjoy a really special sunset, this is the place to go on Martha’s Vineyard!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Along with all of the beautiful beaches, bridges, cliffs, and other sights on the island, one of our favorites are the lighthouses. There\u2019s something magical about a lighthouse, and the history that goes along with it, isn\u2019t there? They\u2019re beautiful and take you back in time to a day when they were being used to warn ships of rocky shores. The five lighthouses throughout Martha\u2019s Vineyard are all breathtaking, and we totally recommend you take the time to visit as many as you can!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Heres the list:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Just steps away from where our ferry docks, there is a National Historical Landmark called Martha\u2019s Vineyard Camp Meeting Association. Located in the heart of Oak Bluffs, the MVCMA oversees the area commonly known as The Campground, which includes many of the colorful, renowned Gingerbread Cottages and the iconic iron Tabernacle. You will love walking around their expansive grounds admiring the beautiful pastel colored homes, landscaping work, and learning about the history that makes this place so important. It\u2019s truly amazing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n No brainer, right? You are on an island after all! But really, walking on the beach on Martha\u2019s Vineyard is a one of a kind experience. With the multitude of beaches in every single town, and the different spectacular views they all offer, think harbors, rocky shores, flat soft sand, cliffs, and views of marshes and ponds, there is always something new to explore. So grab your favorite person and go! You\u2019re bound to make great memories, find some beach treasures, and get some good exercise in while you\u2019re at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
