Board a morning ferry to Martha’s Vineyard, an island long favoured for its natural beauty and notable visitors. Begin at the Gingerbread Cottage Museum in Oak Bluffs, where your Local Expert reveals the origins of this colourful 19th-century neighbourhood. Enjoy free time to explore at your own pace, perhaps visiting the Flying Horses Carousel, the oldest of its kind in America. Later, gain a broader perspective during an orientation of the island, passing coastal landmarks including State Beach, made famous by the film Jaws. Spend the night on Martha’s Vineyard, giving you more time to experience the island’s distinctive character. This evening, savour island hospitality at Bettini, located in your elegant hotel, with a seasonal menu shaped by local farms, fishing boats and foragers.
