The 2026 Holiday Season
🎄 Visiting Martha’s Vineyard for the Holidays
Late November through mid-December is one of my favorite windows for a Martha’s Vineyard trip. Downtowns are decorated, local shops and makers are in holiday mode, and several of the Island’s biggest holiday traditions happen within a few weekends.

Gifts that aren’t gifts! Gifts for minimalists! Gifts for the person who has everything! Gifts for a good cause! Sometimes a material gift isn’t the right pick, so this guide goes beyond that with creative ideas that also support local (and most can be bought online). Enjoy!
