Located just 30 miles off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, the beautiful 14-mile-long Nantucket Island is renowned for its picturesque beaches, historic lighthouses, and fun seaside activities for all ages. 
 
Once a thriving whaling port, the entire island has since been designated as a National Historic Landmark. Explore the quaint boutiques and art galleries lining the cobblestone streets of this harbor town. Savor fresh, local cuisine from some of the best restaurants in the world. Enjoy picturesque sunsets and relaxing strolls along the wharf or set out on a bicycle excursion to Nantucket's pristine beaches, just moments away.
