How a New Generation of Hoteliers and Chefs Is Creating a More Inclusive Martha's Vineyard

"A charter boat run by a genial captain who leads half- and full-day excursions around Vineyard Sound and nearby islands, blending relaxed coastal sightseeing with local storytelling (from celebrity-home sightings to playful touches like the captain’s movie-theme ringtone) and making boat travel accessible to visitors." - Jennifer Wilson Jennifer Wilson Jennifer Wilson is a New York City-based writer specializing in Eastern European arts and culture.

Fantastic sunset cruise! Highly recommend Island Girl Excursions. Six of us went with Eamonn Solway Eamon was a spectacular captain - very knowledgeable about the island and where to best watch the sunset! He took us around West Chop and to Lambert Cove. He catered to us and made it a special trip. Even played James Taylor!

I've had the pleasure of going out with Island Girl twice now and both experiences have made for some of the most memorable times around Martha's Vineyard. We were able to visit nearby Cuttyhunk and browse the shores of the Elizabeth Islands, a truly unique experience. My father-in-law caught his first fish ever aboard the boat and he won't stop talking about it ;) Captain Eamonn is extremely informative and treated us to a truly spectacular day on the water. He is friendly, safe, and committed to giving his passengers the most enjoyable time on board. Highly recommend!

Eamonn and Becca provide a wonderful island experience. Over the years, I have made several excursions with Eamonn, ranging from two hours of puttering about between Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs and five hours touring both sides of the Elizabeth Islands. Eamonn Is a deeply experienced charter captain and is readily able to adjust trips to weather conditions as required. ‘Bluebird’ Is very well suited to Vineyard waters: big enough, and with enough power to handle rougher water, small enough to make the experience feel like a more intimate outing. I could not recommend them more highly!

All around, a fantastic experience! Captain Eamonn’s first priority was our safety and comfort. His knowledge of the island and its waters was very informative. You could not ask for a more down to earth, organized, and responsible captain. The Island Girl is immaculately clean and very comfortable for passengers of all ages. We will definitely be booking with Island Girl Excursions again!

Becca and Captain Eamon saved our entire trip! We realized with less than 24 hours to go that a late-night event would leave us stranded on Martha’s Vineyard with no way back to Falmouth and no place to sleep without spending $2000. After calling numerous charters trying to arrange transportation, I got in touch with Becca and now it’s a funny story instead of a nightmare. They were so responsive, so kind, and the sail was a wonderful experience in addition to being a necessity. Can’t recommend them highly enough!

Such an amazing time with Captain Eamonn! He is so knowledgeable about the Vineyard and the wildlife and we had an amazing time. Even on a cloudy day he made our boat ride so enjoyable! Highly recommend!

This trip was the highlight of our vacation to Martha's Vineyard! Becca was very responsive & explained in detail where to meet. We felt safe in the hands of Captain Eamonn who showed us Tarpaulin Cove on Naushon & the cows wading in the ocean in Nashawena. After my eldest read "Beyond the Bright Sea", she really wanted to visit Penikese (a first for Capt. Eamonn as well) and our family had a blast exploring this bird sanctuary, speaking to the island keeper, & visiting the remains of the leper colony & cemetery. Afterwards, we made a quick stop to Cuttyhunk before returning to MV. We truly enjoyed this magical & historical trip and highly recommend Island Girl Excursions!

I couldn't recommend Island Girl Excursions enough. Captain Eamonn was very kind and knowledgeable, and taught us some of the historic aspects of the island, as well as shared some Jaws locations and tidbits - which was a big deal for me. His daughter, Lyla, is well on her way to becoming a captain herself, and was also very kind and knowledgeable. Booking with Becca was easy and accommodating, with a quick response to all my questions and great customer service. And the sunset was amazing. The next time my family and I are on MV, we look forward to another excursion with Island Girl.
