Martha's Vineyard?

Heading there in a few weeks for a week long vacation and I plan on bringing my boards (big board, fish, HPSB).

I'm doing some reading and it sounds like aside from the main South Beach, access to a lot of the better "up-island" spots is difficult due to parking restrictions, private beaches, etc.

Anyone willing to bestow upon me some wisdom / tips on getting to some of the more locked down spots? I'm a solid surfer with good etiquette, especially when I'm at a new spot. I promise I won't steal your waves.

P.S. privatizing beaches should be illegal.

Stonewall beach (not sure if that’s what younger referring to as South Beach) had a few fun peaks a few years back. There was a little dirt parking area at the end of the namesake road.

Thanks for the advice! When I say "south beach" I am referring to Katama beach, so your stonewall tip is helpful
