What is Lobsterville Beach like?

A calm Vineyard Sound beach legally open to all but reachable mainly by bike or foot (no day parking). (Local note: ~8 or fewer non-resident spots, no road parking — biking in is the realistic way)

    Moshup Beach Extension / Devils Bridge Shore

    Sticker or daily feeDogs: off-season only

    The remote southwestern shore below the Gay Head Cliffs extending toward Devils Bridge. A wild, undeveloped strip reached by walking west from the main Moshup Beach parking area. Strong currents near the submerged Devils Bridge ledge make swimming inadvisable, but the cliffs, views, and shelling are extraordinary.

    Philbin Beach, AquinnahOcean / Atlantic

    Philbin Beach

    Resident sticker only

    Philbin Beach is Aquinnah's resident sunset gem on the wild southwest shore, just off Moshup Trail below the Gay Head Cliffs. A wide Atlantic surf beach with soft sand and big open water, it's beloved for uncrowded space and spectacular light. Note the access rules: in season it's residents/renters with an Aquinnah sticker only — otherwise park at the Cliffs and walk down.
