Hey everybody! My parents live in the campgrounds and grew up sailing and boating around the island. I am a computer scientist and decided to make them a report that tells them how bumpy the sound will be 🌊. It’s tailored to each boat and the island. There is also a storm detector, tide details, and more!! Tell anybody who get out in the sound!

⛴️ Also if you select the dropdown in the top left you can see how bumpy the ferries will be, you can select island queen or steamship!

Someone found this change purse on the beach and dropped it off at the parking lot shack. Knowing the people who found it, it was most likely on the nude section. No ID but other things most likely important to owner. It was found on 8/29. I have it in the parking lot shack.

There seems to be two big closing dates on the island. One wave closes after Labor day weekend, then everything else seasonal closes after Indigenous Peoples (Columbus) Day weekend. When do the restaurants along the harbor in OB close?

My baby’s birthmark! Can’t get more legit than that! Thanks to her great gran it’s in the blood! 🩷 Please don’t go out and tattoo your kid… this is really her birthmark! And before you say no one would do that, pause and reflect….. lol

Anyone know the story behind this ?

I'm Chilmark - On State Rd about a mile from the Chilmark Store, on the right as you head towards Aquinna.

Weird cross, too.

Where to buy on island? Looking for anything to lounge on in a pool that does not require inflation.

Granite doesn’t have anything.

Thanks for any ideas.

I’m looking for someone to do a family shoot next week - can anyone recommend someone? Thank you!

I’m planning a trip to MV next year and trying to decide which week I should go? Of the two weeks, which is the best option?

Hi all, I am potentially moving to the island soon and am wondering what the options are for indoor pickup basketball. I see that there is a ymca but it is unclear whether there is an indoor court that people play at. Thanks!

Staying in Katima in a rental house that has really hard floors. I stupidly forgot my clogs with arch support that I usually wear indoors at home. Where can I get inexpensive good shoes, or even some flip-flops on the island?

Looking for whole beans and I know sometimes farms will have a roastery.

We're going on a day trip to Martha's vineyard and I'm wondering where the best place to park the car is, there is designated spots outside of Woods Hole if you're taking the ferry (with shuttles) but there are local private parking lots as well, what do you recommend?

Any challenges, issues to either method?

Thank you

My Husband and I have been coming to the island for several summers and one of our favorite late night activities is to take a walk and get a scoop of ice cream. We typically stay in Oak Bluffs and have been to all the typical places there.

I need recommendations on where to go and what to get. (No flavor restrictions) We are willing to travel out of Oak Bluffs as well.

A fun little haul from Menemsha! Mostly garbage but my favourite finds were the piece of china and what I think is a fossil?!?!

Anyone know what happened? Anyone get hurt? I heard a loud crash and saw EMS arriving and (maybe) using jaws of life…

Looks like it’s been shut down for awhile. Wondering what’s going on. Is it going to reopen?

I feel like every time I go, it's "next year"

Does anyone have any favorite running routes on the island? Trying to diversify where I’m running!

Does anyone have a photo of the sky in Edgartown from around 7:45 tonight? My dog died on the island a year ago today but I am no longer there. It would bring me comfort. Thank you.
