Welcome to Nantucket Island

Time seems to move a little slower on Nantucket Island, located just south of Cape Cod. Relax on Jetties Beach for views of magnificent Nantucket Sound or stroll through the cobblestone streets of the Nantucket Historic District (which actually encompasses the entire island) for fantastic examples of preserved pre-Civil War era architecture. Explore the Nantucket Shipwreck and Lifesaving Museum, commemorating those who lost their lives off the island’s coasts. But Nantucket isn’t just a retreat for the summer months! Visit in December for the annual Christmas Stroll! Meet Santa Claus at the historic Jared Coffin House, shop for crafts and stick around for the Main Street lighting of over 100 Christmas trees. But, remember to slow down; you’re in Nantucket!
