Immerse yourself in our island’s history, capture several fantastic photos, and visit whichever lighthouses most pique your interest—and at your pace! Cultivate cherished memories with your significant other exploring the magnificent lighthouses near our Martha’s Vineyard hotel. 

Visit the Best Martha’s Vineyard Lighthouses

The best part of engaging in a self-guided tour is that you’re free to take as much time as you’d like, and you can start whenever you’d like. Spend a few hours or an entire day visiting historical lighthouses near our Edgartown hotel. You’re sure to learn a few fascinating facts and snap your fair share of photos. 

  • Cape Poge Lighthouse is akin to a hidden gem as you can only access this Martha’s Vineyard lighthouse via beach vehicle or boat, like the Chappy Ferry
  • Climb to the top of Edgartown Lighthouse and bask in the beautiful view of the harbor. 
  • Read up on the Gay Head Lighthouse’s intriguing history, and take plenty of pictures of this magnificent lighthouse perched upon striking, colorful cliffs. 
  • Located in Oak Bluffs, The East Chop Lighthouse still acts as an active navigation aid and is generally open during the summer season during sunset and Sunday evenings.
  • The West Chop Lighthouse sits on the peninsula opposite The East Chop Lighthouse. While not available to the public, you can still get a great view of The West Chop Lighthouse via road or ferry. 

Indulge in The Best Martha’s Vineyard Activities 

You’ll never run out of things to do in Martha’s Vineyard during your stay at Vineyard Square Hotel & Suites, regardless of the season. Winter on the East Coast means visits to local art galleries, like the Vineyard Square’s Eisenhauer Gallery, and cozy evenings indoors with your significant other while snow drifts slowly to the ground outside your window. Spend the shoulder and summer season immersing yourself in nature, like hiking the island and embarking on romantic walks on the beach. Delight in fine dining, such as at our on-site Edgartown restaurant, Chesca’s Restaurant. Regardless of where your interests lie, you’re sure to have an unforgettable time getting comfortable in our spacious accommodations and exploring Martha’s Vineyard with your significant other.

Evelyn

Walk around the Tabernacle in Oak Bluffs and see the Gingerbread Cottages but be sure to look for Eleanor.  She’s well past ninety, a wealth of Martha’s Vineyard info, and she may even ask you to sign her visitor’s book.  She will be on her porch waiting for you to come by.

Oak Bluffs is a nice bike ride from Vineyard Square Hotel in Edgartown

Michael

Pack some snacks in Edgartown then drive, bike or bus up to Chilmark and explore the Great Rock Bight Preserve. (Top left hand corner, mouse over the #34 for info and directions.) After a hike, swim out to the Great Rock. (Bring some water-shoes! The barnacles are sharp!)

Vincent

Take the 13 bus up to Oak Bluffs and grab a slice of pizza from Giordano’s. Now take that delicious slice to Ocean Park, grab a bench, and enjoy your lunch; and one of the best views on the island.

Lane

To truly relax on your Martha’s Vineyard vacation, walk around the Lagoon, from Oak Bluffs to Vineyard Haven and back, at low tide. (There’s no beach at high tide!) No crowds, and the peaceful sound of the waves lapping on the sand is better than an hour of meditation.

Joanne

Stroll down the street from our Martha’s Vineyard hotel and hop on the harbor launch for a half hour ride around Edgartown harbor – “It’s only an island if you look at it from the water” (small fee)

Janice

Looking for a great Edgartown restaurant for seafood? Look no further than the Square Rigger Restaurant which has the best lobster in town. You can hop onto the #11 Park and Ride from Mayhew Lane at no cost and don’t have to worry about drinking too much for dinner.

Rob

I love going to the bar at Détente for an early dinner. Between 5:30 and 6:00 everything on the menu is half price. They have an often changing and always interesting selection of wines by the glass. This is one of the best deals on the Island.

CJ

Grab a lobster roll at Grace Church on Friday afternoon (voted “best lobster roll” on the island in “Best of the Vineyard” past five years) and head to your favorite Martha’s Vineyard beach for a picnic.  Evenings are a great time of day to enjoy the beach and cool off without the crowds!
