Review:

Menemsha Beach is located in the small, quaint fishing village of Menemsha in the Martha's Vineyard town of Chilmark.

Before going to the beach, stroll through the town and let the kids see real fishing boats as they unload their catch before bringing the colorful fish to the local market.

The beach is a bit rocky, but it faces the Vineyard Sound and not the ocean, so its surf is always gentle, perfect for the kids to splash around.

The views of Elizabeth Islands from the beach are fantastic.

You can also come by local bus. There is a lifeguard on duty during the summer season, and there are a few restrooms located near the beach.

If you did not bring a picnic, there are three seafood shops that sell fresh seafood to-go.
