Woods Hole
Nestled in the town of Falmouth, Woods Hole offers a unique
blend of scientific exploration and charming coastal vibes. Explore the wonders
of the ocean at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL), a world-renowned center
for marine research and education. After a day of discovery, unwind at The Captain
Kidd,
a classic waterfront bar with live music and breathtaking views of Martha's
Vineyard.
For a touch of retail therapy, head to Inlet, a shop brimming
with locally sourced treasures like hand-painted horseshoe crabs and local
honey. Art and homeware enthusiasts can find unique pieces at Masterson Made, while the MBL Gift Shop offers
souvenirs that support future generations of scientists.
In the evening, soak up the lively atmosphere at Grumpy's Pub, a local
favorite with live music on weekends. For a taste of Ireland, head to Liam Maguire's
Irish Pub, where live music fills the air year-round.
No visit to Woods Hole is complete without exploring its natural beauty. Capture
panoramic views of Martha's Vineyard and Nonamesset Island at Nobska Point
Lighthouse. Take a scenic bike ride through cranberry bogs and Chapaquoit
Beach on
the Shining
Sea Bikeway, or explore the unique beaches, wooded areas, and panoramic
vistas of The Knob.
