If you're
looking for an ideal vacation place,
consider the Island of Nantucket. Nantucket
is 30 miles off the coast of Cape Cod. The
Island's one town, also called Nantucket, has the
architectural charm of the 19th century, with
cobblestone streets, historic sites and buildings
dating back to that period. Nantucket offers world
class cuisine, upscale shops, and 100 miles of
pristine beaches. You can choose from a wide
variety of vacation activities including surfing,
swimming, golf, fishing, sailing, and biking. |

Kick back for the day by relaxing in a spa, visiting a museum,
taking a sun bath, or joining an art class. The Island of
Nantucket is small, 3.5 by 14 miles, and is home
to 268 rare and endangered species.
The Islanders take great
pride in their shops and homes and
lovely gardens are seen everywhere. You'll
still see evidence of the original settlers, with streets and businesses named after the
Macy's, Starbucks, Coffins and Colemans, who
landed in Nantucket in 1659.
Vacationers come here each
year to escape the stress of everyday life and
enjoy all of the luxuries the Island has to offer. |
