MV Bucket List: Menemsha Picnic And Sunset
Channel: POINT B | COMPASS
Date: 2017-07-06

It is without a doubt, one of the most beautiful places on Martha's Vineyard. Menemsha, the picturesque fishing village, with its active harbor, that serenely sits on the far northwestern edge of Chilmark, on Vineyard Sound.

On an island full of special places, Menemsha is in a category of its own. In addition to the postcard-perfect harbor, the sandy north shore beach is a beauty. Not only is it Chilmark's only town beach that is open to non-residents -- but the calm waters of Vineyard Sound make it very family-friendly. Picnicking in Menemsha is a way of life, and since it faces west, the sunset magic here is spectacular.

Whether you make a day, an afternoon, or evening of it, Menemsha is Classic Vineyard. Add in sunset with your picnic, and that's an experience that belongs on everyone's Vineyard Bucket List -- at least once a summer.

On Point Blog host Guinevere Cramer packs up her family and her picnic, and heads up-island to enjoy the Menemsha lifestyle.
