Food scene

Nothing says Martha's Vineyard better than the Black Dog, their clothing stores are ubiquitous on island, but the original tavern is still the best. Started by two friends in the seventies when it was the only year round restaurant, it is a stones throw from the ferry landing and is one of the few places you can eat right on the water. Reliably good food with a fancy tavern menu

When excavating a cellar at the storied Kelly House, they unearthed a tavern dating back to colonial times which was then turned into this friendly tavern with rough hewn logs holding the ceiling. A simple friendly menu, reliably good food and very family friendly.

Perfect outing for a rainy day. Sited in the old mariners hospital, a beautiful gem of a museum with permanent and rotating exhibits and a hands on area for the little ones.

Known variously as State Beach, Jaws beach, Bend in the Road, this Vineyard Sound beach is a favorite for families because of the shallow water and lack of waves. Large portions of Jaws was filmed here and jumping off big bridge is a rite of passage for islanders and visitors alike.

Long Point is managed by the Trustees of reservation. It is the perfect combination of a South shore Atlantic beach steps from a sandy bottomed fresh water pond. Perfect for children and adults. The parking lot is small and fills up early so the best bet if to go very early or mid afternoon when the crowds start to thin
