Martha’s Vineyard, MA
Today this east coast island can be accessed by ferry from Cape Cod and offers something for all types of visitors with its beautiful beaches, a picturesque lighthouse, colorfully painted gingerbread cottages, and lovely hotels. Martha’s Vineyard has been the perfect summer playground for wealthy people each year.
While it may be known best for its natural attractions like South Beach State Park and Aquinnah Cliffs, you won’t want to miss taking a ride on the historic Flying Horses carousel. You can also enjoy fantastic farmer’s markets, sip cold pints at Bad Martha Farmer’s Brewery or The Black Dog Tavern and perhaps catch a glimpse of a celebrity or two.
While you’re in the area, check out Oak Bluffs. Ferries deliver day-trippers to this little town each day, and the colorful gingerbread houses for which Oak Bluffs is known are straight out of a fairy tale.
