Martha's Vineyard, MA

This island just south of Cape Cod has long been a favorite summer retreat for Easterners. Here you'll find sandy beaches, picturesque lighthouses and charming towns. Edgartown, for example, is home to the stately white-clapboard Greek Revival homes of ship captains. Oak Bluffs, once a Methodist summer camp in the mid-1800s, now is filled with brightly painted Victorian gingerbread cottages.
