Vineyard Haven Beach Evening Walk
This video is an evening walk along the beach at Vineyard Haven Harbor, filmed just after sunset while the sky was still pink and purple. We follow the shoreline as the light fades, with the harbor water flat and quiet beside us: a slow, uneventful walk, which is the point.
Vineyard Haven Harbor at DuskDusk is one of the calmest times at this harbor. The beach empties out, the water goes still, and it picks up whatever color the sky is doing. If you're staying in Vineyard Haven, an after-dinner walk here costs nothing and is worth the detour; if you're watching from home, this video gets you most of the way there.
