Menemsha

Unspoiled by the "progress" of the past few decades, this working port is a jumble of weathered fishing shacks, fishing and pleasure boats, drying nets, and lobster pots. The village is popular with cyclists who like to stop for ice cream or chowder. Menemsha is often busy with folks eager to see the sunset.
