It is actually one of those “gotta see for yourself” kinds of experiences. Famous regulars to this unique city include Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, and most recently, Jimmy Buffett. Come on! Let’s go check it out. The Island of Martha’s Vineyard is covered with windswept moors, dense forests, and dramatic coastal cliffs. Nantucket allures folks with its tranquil sense of the faraway, of a place that seems greatly removed from almost anywhere.
