Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket
Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket are two of the most attractive islands in the Cape area. Gentle and clear waters, a rich maritime history, and beautiful beaches, make for a wonderful vacation destination. The island of Martha’s Vineyard merits some in depth exploring and is worth more than just a casual stop. Much of the island has remained the same as when the first European settlers arrived in the early 17th century. The population consists mostly of artists, entertainers, lobstermen and anglers who treasure the privacy and beauty of their surroundings. Visit the towns of Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Havens, see the salt sea marshes, and enjoy the scenic yacht harbors. Any trip to the Outer Cape is incomplete without a visit to the Massachusetts Audubon Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, a haven for more than 250 species of birds attracted by the varied habitats found here. Nantucket is famous for its historic sights and museums (a must see being the Sandwich Glass museum), cobble stoned streets, and conservation lands where you can walk, bird watch, or go biking. |
