Vineyard Haven / Tisbury
While scores of stores and restaurants across the island shutter during the winter months, many Vineyard Haven establishments stay open throughout the year. The central hub of the town of Tisbury, Vineyard Haven is the main port of entry for most Vineyard visitors arriving on the ferry. A stroll down Main Street takes pedestrians past a diverse range of galleries, shops, and eateries, including The Simon Gallery featuring iconic photographs of some of the most recognizable names in rock ‘n’ roll and the famous Bunch of Grapes bookstore.
Tisbury properties range from historic in-town homes to beautiful waterfront estates along Vineyard Haven harbor, Lake Tashmoo, West Chop, and the western side of Lagoon Pond.
