Menemsha Public Beach

A picturesque New England beach known for its tranquil waters, stunning sunsets, and fishing town charm, popular for family outings and picnics.

Tips from the community

getting your fresh steamed lobster and a parking spot in time for sunset may be challenging during peak seasons, but it can be worth it. take advantage if you can visit shoulder / off season for sure :) this is one of my favorite spots in the world - sunset or otherwise tip: this is a working fishing village, and an awesome spot to linger with the kids. i try to tip the fisherman if they spend a lot of time with the children. especially if they lose a huge (valuable) crab trying to show it your kids (which happened last time yikes!)

    I have loved Martha's Vineyard for a long time, and once I discovered Lamberts Cove that was my favorite spot on the island (and my happy place more generally). I will share that location and other faves in this list! Enjoy!
