Trip Overview
On this bike tour, you stay three nights at the newly renovated Harbor View Hotel in Edgartown, Massachusetts, where your premier room is in the historic main building.
This tour has everything! On the Cape you follow beach roads and a beautiful bike path as you weave your way past salt marshes, cranberry bogs, bird sanctuaries, barrier beaches and tidal flats filled with egrets, geese and ducks.
A scenic ferry ride takes you to Martha’s Vineyard and elegant Edgartown, a colonial seaport with rows of handsome 18th-century homes. Cycle to Katama with its beautiful barrier beach, and to historic West Tisbury. Plus, visit Vineyard Haven, ride past historic West Chop Light and ride “up island” to the spectacular lookout at Aquinnah Cliffs. Enjoy a picnic in the picturesque village of Menemsha where we bike down to the harbor and stroll along the beach. On your last day, you can opt for an early morning ferry ride to Chappaquiddick before cycling along a beautiful bike path to Oak Bluffs. Here we explore famous labyrinthine streets lined with fanciful rainbow-colored gingerbread cottages and visit the town’s antique Flying Horses Carousel before returning to the inn.
Our two inns are the best! On the Cape you stay at the charming Palmer House Inn perfectly situated in the tree-lined historic district of Falmouth. And in Edgartown, you enjoy the wonderful rooms at the Harbor View Hotel where you can look out past the Edgartown Lighthouse and Chappaquiddick Island. From here, you can enjoy walking the narrow streets of this former whaling seaport with its handsome 18th-century houses and white picket fences, as well as high-end boutiques and art galleries.

DAY 3 - Martha’s Vineyard
Distance: 30 or 40 miles | Terrain: Easier | Harbor View Hotel
After a superb breakfast, we ride back into Woods Hole to start our ferry ride to Martha’s Vineyard. This is a delightful transition from mainland to island and includes gorgeous views of the harbor and Vineyard Sound. We arrive 45 minutes later in Vineyard Haven and ride from there along a lovely route (that includes a sea side bike path) to the easterly end of the island. Streets lined with handsome Eighteenth Century houses surrounded by white picket fences and topped with widow walks announce that you have arrived in Edgartown, a world-renowned seaport that still reflects the wealth and good taste of the phenomenally successful whaler captains of the early 1800’s. Our home is here for the next three nights where we are guests at the prestigious Harbor View Hotel located near the Chappaquiddick Ferry landing and just a few minute’s walk from all the boutique shops and waterfront galleries for which Edgartown is so rightfully famous.

DAY 4 - Vineyard, artists, and galleries
Distance: 23 or 38 miles | Terrain: Easier to Intermediate | Harbor View Hotel
Wednesday’s ride first takes us to Katama where we can warm our feet in the sand on the beautiful three-mile barrier beach, then follow bike paths to West Tisbury, home to a number of Vineyard artists, and galleries, and to Alley’s, a quintessential general store.

Here we might also enjoy the numerous small shops in the village and maybe stop for refreshments at the iconic Black Dog Tavern. In the evenings we have plenty of time to explore Edgartown. Edgartown is a great place to walk and, if you are in the mood, a great place to shop as well. Most stores are boutiques for high end apparel, jewelry, etc. but arts and antiques are also represented. Rounding out the selection are the requisite T-shirt and souvenir shops and you will want to indulge in the time-honored tradition of sampling the fudge and brittle at Murdick’s.

Thursday’s ride takes us “up island” through quaint and quiet villages that evoke the island’s maritime past.

Here we might also enjoy the numerous small shops in the village and maybe stop for refreshments at the iconic Black Dog Tavern. In the evenings we have plenty of time to explore Edgartown. Edgartown is a great place to walk and, if you are in the mood, a great place to shop as well. Most stores are boutiques for high end apparel, jewelry, etc. but arts and antiques are also represented. Rounding out the selection are the requisite T-shirt and souvenir shops and you will want to indulge in the time-honored tradition of sampling the fudge and brittle at Murdick’s.
Wednesday’s ride first takes us to Katama where we can warm our feet in the sand on the beautiful three-mile barrier beach, then follow bike paths to West Tisbury, home to a number of Vineyard artists, and galleries, and to Alley’s, a quintessential general store. We then weave our way past Lambert’s Cove and take back roads into Vineyard Haven where we visit the handsome West Chop Lighthouse with its great view over Vineyard Sound.

DAY 5 - Quaint and quiet villages
Distance: 26 or 40 miles | Terrain: Easier to Intermediate | Harbor View Hotel
Thursday’s ride takes us “up island” through quaint and quiet villages that evoke the island’s maritime past. We ride out to Aquinnah Cliffs (formerly Gay Head), one of the most spectacular spots on the island. After enjoying the multi-mile views from the lookout we will take the boardwalk to the beach so as to better see the mosaic of colors for which the cliffs are rightfully famous. We might also stop at the top of the cliffs to visit the several interesting shops owned by the indigenous Wampanoag Indians. On your way back from Aquinnah we will stop in the fishing village of Menemsha, a supremely picturesque fishing village situated on Menemsha Pond and Vineyard Sound. This historic harbor serves as the point of departure for most of the local fishermen, and is usually bustling with activity. We will also plan to picnic here, perhaps after a scenic walk along beautiful Menemsha Beach.

DAY 6 - Departure Day
Distance: 17 miles | Terrain: Easier
On Friday you can opt for an early morning ferry ride to Chappaquiddick before cycling along a beautiful bike path to Oak Bluffs.

You may also want to splurge at one of the local ice cream emporiums before finishing the day’s ride along the Beach Road bike path as it cuts its way between the ocean on one side and beautiful salt marshes on the other. You end your tour with a ride on the ferry back to Woods Hole and a shuttle to the Palmer House Inn.

DAY 3 - Martha’s Vineyard
Distance: 30 or 40 miles | Terrain: Easier | Harbor View Hotel
After a superb breakfast, we ride back into Woods Hole to start our ferry ride to Martha’s Vineyard. This is a delightful transition from mainland to island and includes gorgeous views of the harbor and Vineyard Sound. We arrive 45 minutes later in Vineyard Haven and ride from there along a lovely route (that includes a sea side bike path) to the easterly end of the island. Streets lined with handsome Eighteenth Century houses surrounded by white picket fences and topped with widow walks announce that you have arrived in Edgartown, a world-renowned seaport that still reflects the wealth and good taste of the phenomenally successful whaler captains of the early 1800’s. Our home is here for the next three nights where we are guests at the prestigious Harbor View Hotel located near the Chappaquiddick Ferry landing and just a few minute’s walk from all the boutique shops and waterfront galleries for which Edgartown is so rightfully famous.
