Martha's Vineyard is an island in Massachusetts located in the Atlantic Ocean just south of Cape Code. The island is a long running and well-known summer destination for New Englanders. The landscape is filled with cute harbor towns, old lighthouses, farmland, and sandy beaches. There are no roads from the mainland to Martha's Vineyard, and it's only reachable by air or sea.
The island is most popular between Memorial Day and Labor Day when a steady stream of tourists is coming and going all the time, especially on weekends. However, April can be a great time to visit as many attractions and businesses are already open, the weather is nice, wildflowers are in bloom, and it's easier to find deals on accommodations and goods.
