Life In Chilmark

To get a true sense of the beauty of Chilmark, take a scenic drive on Middle Road. You can stop along the way at the Middle Road Sanctuary and hike through the preserved wilderness that is home to native plants, wildflowers, and birds. A visit to Menemsha Hills is a must, with a hike down to the ocean and the historic Brickyard.

In town, Chilmark is known for its historic fishing village, Menemsha. Here, you’ll find a picturesque harbor that serves as a point of departure for local fishermen. You can also catch a bicycle ferry that takes you (and your bike) across the pond to Aquinnah. Don’t forget to grab some fresh seafood at the local fish shacks. The Menemsha Galley is famous for its lobster rolls and chowder.

At the center of town, you’ll find the iconic Chilmark General Store where you can pick up some locally sourced treats and then relax in the rocking chairs on the porch. Nearby is the Chilmark Community Center which hosts The Martha’s Vineyard Film Festival, a beloved summertime event for the entire island. Life is relaxed and simple in Chilmark and we can’t wait to show you around!
