Martha's Vineyard is a popular tourist destination for its tucked-away cafes, shops and bed and breakfasts, and its easy-going atmosphere.

Tisbury
Tisbury is the main port of entry on Martha's Vineyard, as well as the island's commercial center. Here you'll find the 52-foot West Chop Light, the recreational Manuel Correllus State Forest and many restaurants such as 90 Main Street Deli and the Black Dog Café.

Oak Bluffs
Oak Bluffs is home to the country's oldest operating carousel, the Flying Horses Carousel. Visit East Chop Light, located on the bluffs, near the historic Tabernacle. Enjoy the Cajun creations at Lola's or the seafood bar at Jimmy Seas Pan Pasta.

Edgartown
Edgartown is home to the impressive Edgartown Light, the 17th Century-era Vincent House Museum and the town's oldest church, the Old Whaling Church. An affordable meal can be found at the Seafood Shanty or the News from America Pub.

Chilmark
Chilmark and Menemsha are dotted with rough beaches and quaint cottages. They are also home to several interesting restaurants, such as Beach Plum Inn Restaurant, and shops, like Larry Hepler Furniture and Menemsha Blues.

Seeing Martha's Vineyard will be easier if you consult a professional tour company first.
