 “For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), It’s always our self we find in the sea.” – E.E. Cummings

With the weather finally turning towards the better, it seems like more and more boats are slowly trickling into the harbors. People are prepping for the season, and I can’t wait to get my boat ready as well. Boating is a large part of the lifestyle here on Martha’s Vineyard, and luckily you don’t have to know someone in order to take advantage of that. There are so many different programs & businesses on Martha’s Vineyard, that finding a way to get out on the water is a breeze.

If you’re looking for some excitement on the high seas, sport fishing is the way to go. We recommend Smokin Eel Charters, or Larry’s Tackle Shop Charters. These two Captains have been fishing these waters for 30+ years, and know the island’s best fishing spots.

If you’re looking for a family day out on the water sailing, call the people over on the schooner Ishmael at 617-355-8610.

Would you like your children to learn how to sail? Check out Sail MV. They have an amazing sailing program for sailors at every level of sailing.

 

If you are looking for something else out on the water, please give us a call. With so many connections throughout the Island, we can help make your summer dreams a reality.

Flying to Martha’s Vineyard

 

MVYMost people love coming to the island by the iconic ferry. I do as well, but I prefer to fly when I am able to. Growing up whenever I got to fly here, and to this day, I would hope they would sit me next to the pilot. Coming over to the island in the little Cape Air 7 seater plane, you have the best views of the island that people rarely get to enjoy.

With seasonal and year round routes from most of New England, getting to and from the island is easier than ever before.   

  • Martha’s Vineyard and Hyannis – seasonal service between HYA and MVY runs from May – September.
  • Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket – year-round island hopping.
  • Martha’s Vineyard and Boston – fast, frequent, year-round service to Boston’s Logan Airport means meetings in the city or connections to major carriers are a breeze.
  • Martha’s Vineyard and New York – seasonal service to Westchester County Airport in White Plains runs from June to September with weekend service continuing through December. Passengers can opt for our limo service between Westchester and Manhattan, where you’ll be picked up and dropped off at the corner of 35th Street and 8th Avenue in the heart of the city.
  • Martha’s Vineyard and Providence – seasonal service to Martha’s Vineyard from T.F. Green Airport in Providence runs from June to September.
  • Martha’s Vineyard and New Bedford – contractors, business travelers, second home owners and vacationers love the quick, easy year-round flights from New Bedford Regional Airport, an ultra-convenient, small regional airport.

With so many connections throughout New England, flying into Martha’s Vineyard is a breeze.

Another bonus about Cape Air? They are pet friendly!
