East Chop Lighthouse

4.5(342 reviews)

About

On Martha's Vineyard, East Chop Lighthouse stands at 229 E Chop Dr, Vineyard Haven, MA 02568, United States, above the water on the island's northern side. The lighthouse is known as a landmark above Vineyard Haven, and the website at http://www.mvmuseum.org/ links it to the island's museum organisation. First-time visitors should expect a short stop with a view rather than a full day out. The structure itself is the draw, sitting at the edge of the Chop.

A rating of 4.5 out of 5 from 342 reviews shows broad approval from a large number of visitors. Reaching the site from Vineyard Haven is quick, and those based in Oak Bluffs or Edgartown can drive over without difficulty. The 342 reviews make it one of the more visited attractions on the island. Visitors often combine the stop with time in the nearby town.

The 4.5 out of 5 rating reflects consistent feedback across a substantial review count. The site is easy to include in a circuit of the island's northern towns.

English is the main language, so finding the site is simple. US island food includes Hawaiian poke and plate lunches, Florida key lime pie and conch fritters, a reminder of how varied the country's island kitchens are. Ferries link most US islands to the mainland, shaping how a day's outing is planned.
