Thirty miles off Cape Cod, Nantucket Island is a
crescent-shaped island that retains a quiet charm found in
past days when whaling ships made this island haven their
home. You'll find lots to explore on foot or by bicycle:
unspoiled beaches and solitary lighthouses, peaceful byways
and lanes, historic mansions, and open-air farmers' stands.
In fact you can leave your car behind on the mainland
because shuttle buses are a convenient way to get around the
island. recreational swimming, fishing, boating and hiking
abound on the island. Seaside golf courses may challenge and
delight the golfer in you as well as tennis and just
relaxing on the beach. See Whaling Museum and the
135-year-old Sankaty Lighthouse. Certain time of the year
you may spot a whale spouting of the shore. Innkeepers of
Bed
and Breakfast Inns can tell you what not to miss on
the Island. These natives love to share the splendors of
their island.
