The Chilmark
beaches are spectacular--most people think they are the nicest on the island.
There are three: Lucy Vincent and Squibnockett which are on the South Shore
and require permits (available to you as a Chilmark renter) and the calm-water
Menemsha Beach which is in the picturesque, working fishing village of the same
name. From the house, it is about five miles to Menemsha or Lucy Vincent, and
a little longer to Squibnockett.
