This is not like the beaches we are accustom to in NJ as the shoreline is very rocky and was unpleasant to step across these rocks to enter the water. Nonetheless the water was beautiful and it was e…Full review by 922dlp

It wasn't exactly swimming weather in Menemsha when we visited at the end of October. However, we did see the beach and it looked like it might be a nice place to be in warmer weather.Full review by RandyRoss

I'm not sure of the answer to this. Most buses run until (I think) 11 at night, but the beach might be on the Menemsha local bus line which is more limited. If you're using the bus as your main travel mode, you can ask any of the bus drivers and they'll be able to answer that question for you. I hear that Menemsha Beach has the most beautiful sunsets. I hope this helped and that you enjoy your visit.

That's a tricky question! The "sunset crowd" begins to gather a good 2 hours before the sunset. BUT - there's also a 2 hr time limit on parking in the adjacent lot, until around 6 or 8 pm. …
That's a tricky question! The "sunset crowd" begins to gather a good 2 hours before the sunset. BUT - there's also a 2 hr time limit on parking in the adjacent lot, until around 6 or 8 pm. (sorry, I don't exactly remember). The police DO watch and ticket cars! There are also remote parking lots. The best choice - take the bus there, bring your beach towel, buy cooked lobsters and fresh chowder at the shops near the beach, and enjoy the sunset! You can get there from almost anywhere on island, and all-day bus pass (use as many times and distances as you like) costs only $8, and is much cheaper than a parking ticket! Off Season - i.e. after mid-Sept - there's lots of parking spaces!
