Jaws & Martha's Vineyard

JAWS is synonymous with Martha’s Vineyard—the iconic backdrop that brought Spielberg’s classic to life. Today, the Island continues to welcome film buffs and JAWS "finatics" from around the world to experience the magic firsthand. Visitors can explore the original filming locations year-round through guided tours, or chart their own course with the SetJetters app and our Film Tourism Guide.

Stay tuned for Amity Week celebrations with the Edgartown Board of Trade in 2026, when we’ll once again honor the film that made Martha’s Vineyard a cinematic legend.

Jaws at 50: An Island Story

Our 2025 exhibition Jaws at 50 was one of the Museum’s most popular shows ever, celebrating the Vineyard’s starring role in Steven Spielberg’s classic. Because of that excitement, we’re keeping the story alive with Jaws at 50: An Island Story. This smaller follow-up highlights the Islanders who built sets, piloted boats, and stepped in front of the camera, showing how their creativity and spirit helped bring Amity Island to life.
