Subject: Nantucket |
Any time is good in Nantucket. Might be a little
too cold to swim. Car is OK but not necessary. If the Inn
is in town it is much better. Walking or biking is the most
fun means of transportation. There is also an hour tour in a
little bus that is very good for first timers and then you
can go back to see what you like. In the town of Sconcet
there is a fabulous walk in back of all the houses facing
the ocean side. The trail is a public way that the homes
have provided. The downtown is nice to walk around and
browse. There is some local theatre that is at times very
good. There are great bike trails all over the place and it
is pretty flat and easy to get around. There are taxis or
buses to take you anywhere you want. If you stay in
Nantucket town you can walk to about every restaurant and go
down the piers and see big yachts and their way of life at
night (dining and being served by chefs, etc.). Also
watching the sunset in some of the beaches is spectacular.
Have a good time.
