We pause here briefly to learn about lighthouses and then continue our drive along this picturesque coastal area passing by the West Chop Club and scenic overlook of the Elizabeth Islands. We stop at this overlook for photos!

Menemsha

Walk around this historical harbor while enjoying a lobster roll or cup of New England clam chowder…yummy! This area is also home to many famous scenes from the original 1975 film "Jaws", a summertime Island favorite. See which ones you can remember as you take in this unique gem of a fishing village. Also a very famous sunset destination boasting the best sunsets on the Vineyard.

Enjoy some local seafood or burgers while supporting the local Wampanoag population. Ice cream is also available seasonally. Take pictures of the Aquinnah Lighthouse and learn how it was moved, to preserve it from erosion.

We drive along the timeless Main Street area where the Old Whaling Church can be seen as well as the harbor and many of the charming shops and cottages that are so unique to the Edgartown look. We drive to the Edgartown light house and stop in front of the Harbor View Hotel where we will find sweeping views of the outer harbor and discuss the history of the lighthouse.

Joseph Sylvia State Beach

Craig B. Knew many interesting facts about the island, and made the trip fun for my entire family. He was on time, considerate, provided rest stops as needed! Our kids liked hearing about where famous people lived, as well as the history. Highly recommend Craig.

Great day seeing Martha’s Vineyard. Guide was extremely nice and accommodating. Tour took us around entire island. We got see all the popular places but also some more rural spots as well. Beautiful place to visit and tour was excellent way to see it all in a short period of time.

We were picked up by Craig and we were whisk away to a great day of adventures. Craig was THE BEST. His knowledge & experience of Martha’s V was entertaining and informative. He truly couldn’t possibly have provided us a better day.
