Jaws was filmed mostly in the northeast of the United States, down under, and in a very surprising location for a final, unexpected scene.
Jaws is one of the most iconic summer films of all time, and its filming locations add to its appeal. To tell the story of Bruce, the killer great white shark, and how he terrorized a whole town one summer, Steven Spielberg set the story in a beach town. While the United States has an abundance of beaches from California to South Carolina, Spielberg's film was set in the northeast.
The American Legion Memorial Bridge Appeared In The Pond Attack Scene The American Legion Memorial Bridge at Sengekontacket Pond appears in the background of the pond shark attack scene, where it seems Martin Brody's son Michael is about to get eaten. Luckily, Martin and other beachgoers get him out of the water in time, but the same can't be said for another fisherman.
Gay Head Lighthouse Appears In The Ferry Scene As the scene goes on and Vaughn continues to argue with Martin about shutting down the beaches, a real-life Martha's Vineyard lighthouse appears in the background. The scenery adds to the New England beach town feel, even though the characters don't actually go there, and it's simply a background decoration. The lighthouse is called Gay Head Lighthouse and is located in Aquinnah.
