About Chilmark 

One of three towns located in the area known as "Up Island", the town of Chilmark offers some of the most breathtaking views of unspoiled land, rolling meadows, and brilliant sea. The town center is marked by a lovely church, as well as a general store featuring a spacious down-home porch where visitors and natives alike gather throughout the day to feast, chat and share the latest local tidbits.  

The visual trademark of Chilmark, just west of West Tisbury, might well be the stone walls that wind their way through rolling fields and forests, recalling the day when vast expanses of the island landscape were open land, devoted to sheep farming. You’ll still see a working sheep farm if you look south from the South Road across the fields of Allen Farm to sweeping vistas of the Atlantic. 

Just a ways to the north is Menemsha, a picturesque fishing village which, remarkably, has kept much of its old New England character. The beach at Menemsha draws people all summer long, and is especially popular as the best place on the island from which to watch a colorful sunset.
