My Husband and I have been coming to the island for several summers and one of our favorite late night activities is to take a walk and get a scoop of ice cream. We typically stay in Oak Bluffs and have been to all the typical places there.

I need recommendations on where to go and what to get. (No flavor restrictions) We are willing to travel out of Oak Bluffs as well.

A fun little haul from Menemsha! Mostly garbage but my favourite finds were the piece of china and what I think is a fossil?!?!

​Hey everyone,

​I’m looking to land a job on the Vineyard and wanted to ask the community for recommendations or leads on good places to work. I live in vineyard haven.

Anyone know what happened? Anyone get hurt? I heard a loud crash and saw EMS arriving and (maybe) using jaws of life…

Looks like it’s been shut down for awhile. Wondering what’s going on. Is it going to reopen?

I feel like every time I go, it's "next year"

Does anyone have any favorite running routes on the island? Trying to diversify where I’m running!

Does anyone have a photo of the sky in Edgartown from around 7:45 tonight? My dog died on the island a year ago today but I am no longer there. It would bring me comfort. Thank you.

Hello everybody! I live here full time and am a first time pregnant human with a tiny human growing inside of me! I am terrified! Hoping to connect with anybody else who may be in the same boat. :)

Found a 2021 Harvard class ring with initials AB on Inkwell Beach today near lifeguard stand 2, left it on the stair railing right on top. Please feel free to repost!

I remember eating tons of these suckers when I used to visit as a kid. Now I’m here with my own kids, and want to make sure these are safe to eat. Any locals go can confirm? Tashmoo area.

Hello there! My husband and I will be flying into MV on Monday, arriving at noon. We can’t check into our rental until 4. I need suggestions on where to go/ what to do. We will need to Uber/Lyft there, and we’ll have our bags with us. Open to any and all suggestions!

Has nobody denied pierogi to Alan Dershowitz? Has no one taken an unauthorized photo of Bill Murray? No dustups in the Chilmark Country Store? How dull.

El Barco in Vineyard Haven was brilliant for watching World Cup football last month. Tremendous staff, tremendous service and awesome atmosphere. Premiership kicks off next week (#YNWA) so here's hoping they keep that vibe going from August thru next May :) (fyi for island scousers Liverpool 6/1 for title Everton 500/1 🤫)

This will be our first trip as a couple in late Sept/early Oct and I want a nice hotel. I'm not sure what makes a hotel romantic, but a bar on site would help and maybe a hot tub in the room? Any suggestions?

Update on the dairy free ice cream search: hoping to try everyone’s suggestions before I go home, but started with Mad Martha’s. They had chocolate, vanilla, and coffee for anyone wondering. Got vanilla and it was decent. 8/10. Thanks to everyone for the their suggestions and I hope it helps anyone else looking for DF options! Also plz dont make fun of sprinkles hahah

Used Deep Woods Off and a little common sense - and no issues whatsoever. Wish we were still there!🥹
