For an historic experience of a true New England whaling town, take in the beautiful architecture, the old captain’s houses, and the rose-bordered gardens of Edgartown.

After enjoying the great shopping and restaurants of downtown head out to Katama to play on the cool sands of South Beach.

Edgartown is home to the old-fashioned 4th of July parade and fireworks. And if you’re into living local, visit the FARM Institute for a real farm experience and Morning Glory Farm for incredible local produce and delectables.

Don’t miss: taking the ‘On Time’ ferry over to Chappy, the little island across the harbor from Edgartown, and head to Wasque Point and Cape Pogue for some great surfcasting.
