Six towns make up Martha’s Vineyard: Oak Bluffs, Edgartown, Vineyard Haven, West Tisbury, Chilmark and Aquinnah. Each town is unique, with so much to offer, from beaches, boating, biking & hiking trails, museums, art galleries and array of fantastic restaurants (don’t leave without having tasted a lobster roll).
