A few Kilometers from the village of Embona is Mount Attaviros, the highest point on the island at 1,200 meters.
The views from the top are fantastic and the temperature at least 15 degrees cooler than by the sea.
There are some archaeological remains just below the summit-a very quiet and peaceful place with only a handful of visitors who venture all the way to the top-even though it is easy to reach by road.
Well recommended gym, offering personal training, spinning, TRX, yoga, boot camps, zumba etc...

The water taxis will take you there and back if the swim is too far.
Martha’s Vineyard is famous for its scenic beaches. Among the nicest is Joseph A. Sylvia State Beach, a great family beach located between Oak Bluffs and Edgartown on Beach Rd. It is easy to reach via the bike paths.
Located at the bridge between Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven, Eastville Beach offers great panoramic views. Lighthouse Beach is located near Edgartown’s center (a short walk from North Water St) and is quiet and safe for children.
Block Island is a destination with beaches in mind: there are a variety of public and private beaches located around the island. Favorite include Crescent Beach, stretching several miles from the Old Harbor, or Dory’s Cove Beach, off of West Side Road.
Several very nice beaches are located by the Wentworth by the Marina such as: Odiorne State Park, located across Little Harbor via dinghy. New Castle Town Common, located 1½ mile walk from the marina.
The long sandy Es Trenc beach that stretches between Sa Rapita and Colonia San Jordi is rated amongst the best beaches in Mallorca, and is popular especially on weekends.
There are many beautiful Calas and coves along this stretch of coastline.
Nantucket has over 24 miles of bicycle paths on mostly flat terrain, providing an ideal environment for biking. Bike paths are separated from the adjacent roadways and link many areas of the island. A ride to the charming village of Sconset, 8 miles east of town, is highly recommended. Other popular rides include the more hilly 12 mile round trip to Madaket, offering views of ponds and moors, or you can take the short ride to Surfside Beach.
The country roads linking Noank, Mystic and Stonington offer nice biking grounds. Another popular ride is the 22 mile Vineyard Loop, starting from Mystic and taking you to Stonington and Jonathan Edwards Wineries, through N. Stonington Village.
Scenic bicycling routes abound in and around Camden. Among the favorite rides are the scenic loop around Rockport’s Beauchamps Point or the ride around Megunticook Lake. Some Camden Hills State Park trails are accessible to mountain bikes.

Great 14.5 mile paved bike trail, running from Bristol to Providence and offering a very scenic landscape. The path starts by the waterfront, less than two miles up the harbor from the Herreshoff marina. It follows an abandoned rail bed along Narragansett Bay and connects eight parks.
A great way to explore the Vineyard is by bike via the 100+ miles of bike paths that take you to the beach, state forests or from town to town.

A more challenging trail is the 11-mile loop ‘Around the Mountain Trail’, with an extended climb up the northwest side of Parkman Mountain.
