BUT it is a dandy spot to consume tardily dark dinner together with and so walk across the street to the Chicken Box (which is the local bar on the island).
--Millies: This is the farthest of them all. It's wayyyy exterior of downtown but worth the hike! If y'all don't receive got a auto together with don't desire to Uber out there, Earth buses cost $2 together with driblet y'all off correct at the door to the restaurant.

Andrew together with I volition larn at least once every hateful solar daytime spell we're there, no affair the weather. UGH, it's simply so good.

Beaches: There are so many dandy beaches on the isle y'all actually can't larn wrong. I likely shouldn't fifty-fifty include this department because I actually exclusively larn to Cisco. We receive got been to some others, but similar I said, I dearest my routines lol. There are also 2 dandy beaches that I'm moving downward to the lighthouse department since they're to a greater extent than related to that than anything else. 
--Cisco Beach: This is Andrew's together with my favorite identify on the island. I don't know what it is most Cisco but every fourth dimension nosotros larn nosotros receive got the best weather. It's never super crowded other than the surfers together with the dogs, but I'm totally downward for watching both! I'm also a large fan because it's a 20-25 infinitesimal wheel ride (all on a wheel path) from town. Also dandy for a halt at the brewery earlier or later the beach on your agency going out or coming back! --Tom Nevers Beach: We've exclusively walked this beach ane time but it was huge and non crowded. That's likely because it's so far out. I shout out upwards the H2O existence actually calm together with getting to encounter all the body of body of water lions pop their heads out!
--Siasconset Beach: This was ane of our start stops inward Nantucket when nosotros had a car! 'Sconset is actually far so you'll ideally desire to rent a auto to larn to this travel of the island. If y'all do, I hope it's worth it! Is such a beautiful trivial town alongside the most amazing flowers (when inward bloom) together with stunning houses. The beach is correct side past times side to town together with a dandy identify to pass the afternoon!
--Madaket Beach: This is a dandy family-friendly beach that is the ideal spot to lookout the sunset if the conditions is right. It's correct side past times side to Millies, so if you're going out y'all powerfulness equally good halt past times for dinner or lunch. Again, y'all tin receive got the autobus or cab out at that spot since it is super far away.  Lighthouses:
--Brant Point: This is the quintessential lighthouse on Nantucket. It's the cutest trivial white lighthouse alongside a rattling large American flag on it, AND -- the best travel -- it's actually unopen to downtown. It's totally walkable or via bike. The beach itself is rattling rocky together with non dandy for swimming. Andrew together with I volition see betwixt our hotel banking concern gibe out together with our flight, receive got a towel, play some cards, together with moving ridge to the ferries equally they come upwards in.
--Great Point Light: Very much different Brant Point, this lighthouse is only accessible via 4-wheeled auto alongside a beach permit together with is at the very tip of the island. If y'all tin swing it, rent a Jeep Wrangler for your trip together with caput downward the beach to the lighthouse. The lighthouse is on protected province so y'all even so demand to walk some, but it is a actually fun total beach/lighthouse hateful solar daytime activity! You experience similar you're on the border of the world.  --Sankaty Head Lighthouse: This (I think) is the prettiest lighthouse on the island. It's iconic because it tin live on seen from many different places inward Nantucket. You'll demand a auto to travel out at that spot together with railroad train for it to live on windy, but it is a lot of fun! It's a dandy thing to produce if y'all conception on heading to 'Sconset for the day. The bluff walk takes y'all almost correct to it! Museums: 
--Whaling Museum: Andrew together with I went hither during our final trip because it was rainy. That's why I propose this equally the perfect rainy hateful solar daytime action on the island! It's a actually good done together with informative museum together with teaches a lot most the root of Nantucket. They receive got some crazy stories to say together with it's worth a stop! --Nantucket Lightship Basket Museum: This is a rattling modest museum but actually interesting (at to the lowest degree to me) because I dearest the lightship baskets. They receive got some actually exceptional ones on display together with receive got y'all through the root together with popularity of the lighthouse handbasket inward today's culture. Extras + Shopping:
--Cisco Brewery: This is a must. There is no excuse to non travel out there. They receive got a costless shuttle service from downtown together with it's super tardily to pop on a wheel together with caput over. It takes most fifteen minutes via wheel from downtown. It is the best identify to live on on a prissy summertime day, enjoying some alive music, dandy drinks, skillful company, together with awesome nutrient trucks. The brewery has 3 houses: ane for liquor, some other for vino together with the final for beer so at that spot is actually something for everyone. Kids together with dogs are welcome too! Just the best identify to be!! My ideal hateful solar daytime at that spot is spent alongside a bloody mary (or two) inward manus together with a lobster coil shape the Nantucket Lobster Trap.
--Sailing: There is a actually great sailing excursion on the isle that takes y'all out for an lx minutes together with a one-half canvas simply about the harbor. The Captain, Jim, is awesome together with it's such a fun agency to encounter together with experience the island. You tin volume per someone ($60-80) or volume a individual canvas for upwards to fourteen people!

Some you've heard of similar Vineyard Vines, Ralph Lauren, together with Southern Tide, but at that spot are a ton of dandy local stores I propose y'all banking concern gibe out. My favorite thing to produce is pop inward together with out of every store together with encounter what catches my eye. The trivial stores that are filled alongside cute Nantucket items or beachy clothes are my favorite ones to halt in! Make certain to walk downward together with simply about Main Street but also past times the wharf (on both sides)! There are to a greater extent than shops at that spot than y'all would think.
