A carnival-like atmosphere pervades this great promenade. Tourists and drivers jockey for position on the street. The shops along this teeming thoroughfare run the gamut from upscale to bric-a-brac.

Every night on the Vineyard requires a visit to this ave. We stroll and make a stop at the Chocolate Emporium, watch the crowd and find a variety of ways to spend money.

This is the main tourist business street. It is within walking distance of most lodging. You will find the typical tee shirt shops, gift shops, artisan/jewelry stores, general clothing and even a market. All your vacation shopping needs concentrated on Circuit Ave. Very convenient.

People-shops- money! Very eclectic and diverse crowd. Stores are nice and a good different mix of stores. Go on a August weekend night!

Oak Blffs is known for its shopping with many stores at very reasonable prices. Also the food from Linda Jean's is second to none. The ferry docks at Oak Bluffs during the season from June until the end of Sept. which makes everything convenient.

Lots of stores/shops and places to eat. Very active place even in September. Very close to Ferry, and easy walk from our place at the Pequot Inn.

By far the tackiest, dirtiest part of the island. Gum on sidewalks, trash and cigarette butts are a common sight on Circuit Ave and throughout much of Oak Bluffs for that matter. Mostly t-shirt shops, junk gifts, etc. Go to Edgartown or Vineyard Haven as an alternative
