The Light Houses of Martha’s Vineyard

There are five Light Houses on Martha’s Vineyard.


Edgar Light House sits on a little island that you can walk to. This lighthouse used to be in Newburyport, Ma on Crane beach but was moved in the 1930s when the original edgar light house was lost in a storm. This LH is definitely the easiest to take pictures of, because there is lots of sea grass and no cars or other structures close-by.



Aquinnah Light or Gay Head is a very cool old red brick light house. This is the light house you see in Jaws when they drive by the sign with the graffiti. It is on the cliffs of Aquinna.

West chop is really only visible from the water.

East Chop is surrounded by squat and ugly trees, i did not get any good pictures.
