Philbin beach has the sand, surf and sounds that make the perfect peace of nature. Lobsterville beach has less surf and is an easier place for children to swim. Menemsha Pond beach has very calm warm water and is a great place to find horseshoe crabs and other sea animal life. Great sunsets from the cliffs or beach! Tourist shops just as you'd expect. Fewer people than down island.
Pros: great beaches, incredible sunsets, you can escape crowds
Cons: parking expense
