Martha's Vineyard is one of the glacial New England islands, where whaling history shaped many of the old port towns. Ferries connect the island to the mainland, and the summer months bring the busiest crowds, so spring and autumn offer quieter conditions. Seafood chowders and fresh oysters appear on menus across the island, drawing on the same Atlantic waters that once carried whaling ships.
