OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
One of the best things about our location is NO BRIDGES to cross! West Island is a peaceful and serene setting yet everything you need (supermarkets, shopping) is just minutes away on Route 6 in Fairhaven.
GETTING TO THE BEACH: The closest beach is straight down Fisherman's Street, where there's a path that leads to the private, association beach. It's a great place to park a beach chair and watch the sunset. The main swimming beach is at the end of Fir Street. Bring the beach pass with you. Please swim at your own risk. Never leave children unattended at the beach, and always swim with a buddy.
THINGS TO DO:
When you’re feeling energetic, there’s a ton of fun things to do:
- Bring your bikes or kayaks and explore the area.
- Play golf or take the kids to play miniature golf nearby;
- Take a hike! Our beach house is surrounded by conservation land, and there is a trailhead nearby. You can find lots of other trails in Fairhaven and Mattapoisett, too.
- Walk or bike the path that runs from Fairhaven through Mattapoisett and crosses a scenic salt marsh on Eel Pond.
- There are beautiful bike paths along the Cape Cod Canal and in Falmouth, too.
- Explore the many antiques shops throughout Southern New England.
- Visit the quaint Mattapoisett Museum or the Whaling Museum in historic New Bedford.
- Visit the famous mansions in Newport, R.I. You can buy tickets online.
- Catch a Red Sox game, or check out the Cape Cod Baseball League games for some exciting college-level action. Wareham has the closest ball field.
- Catch the high-speed ferry to Martha's Vineyard from nearby New Bedford.
WHERE TO EAT:
And to top it all off, there are fabulous restaurants — from the No. 1 clam shack in New England (Oxford Creamery) to finer dining at Tastebuds in Mattapoisett or Brew Fish Bar & Eatery in Marion — and everything in between.
