You will need to take a boat ride from Edgartown aboard the Chappaquiddick Ferry. (no reservations required). But you will need to make advance reservations for the overland adventure to reach Cape Poge conducted by the Trustees of Reservations. No
visit to the island is complete without a visit to the nationally respected Martha's Vineyard Museum.
