The Bites:

{Ice cream at the beach is a must. Thank you to Ben and Bill's Chocolate Emporium for exceeding my flavor choice expectations. This is salted caramel and Kahlua Chocolate Brownie}
The Sights:
{Aquinnah Cliffs}
{Oak Bluffs Town Beach}

Some tips:
- Travel light. When boat travel factors in, I think this is key. Somehow I got away with just a clutch and my husband with just a camera bag. That's probably not realistic for everyone, but it really helped us feel comfortable while we where exploring rather than lugging things around and getting exhausted early.
- We have eaten at both The Lookout Tavern in Oak Bluffs and The Seafood Shanty in Edgartown. They are the stereotypical places to eat, but it's because they both have amazing views of the water and extensive menus with something for everyone.
- The Aquinnah Cliffs aren't that close to the other places I have mentioned but the view is spectacular. If you don't have a car on the island (pretty expensive to take on the ferry for just a day!) the bus system can get you there and the drivers are really helpful getting tourists to the right place.
- Wander. It's the perfect place to just get lost in the little shops and boutiques for hours.
- If you're going to be there longer than a day, check out one of the many quaint bed and breakfasts there.
It's a small island, but there is so much to see. We already can't wait to go back.
