The Nantucket Whaling Museum is perfect for all guests; from tourist to locals, there is always something new to learn or something incredible to see! Filled to the brim with Nantucket's rich history, the museum is a great way to spend an afternoon!
If you drive out past 'Sconset, down Baxter Road, you will come to one of Nantucket's most famous landmarks, the Sankaty Head Light! It was moved a couple of years ago to keep it from plummeting off of the cliffs, and now sits upon a high point that overlooks the Sankaty golf course. The views are spectacular, and the history is impressive; we always make a trip out here on our visits!
The 'Sconset Bluff Walk is a must! With ocean over looks, expansive views of the bluffs and dunes, all the while weaving through the historic 'Sconset village, this walk is easy, family friendly, and one you will never forget. No matter how many times we walk it, we are never not shocked by it's absolute beauty.
A part of the Nantucket Culinary Center, The Corner Table is a great place to grab a coffee, latte, tea, snack, etc. We actually did a fair amount of wedding planning here while on island, the coffee certainly helped! It's quickly become a local favorite, and we're sure you'll love it as well!
A family favorite, Sayle's meets any seafood cravings you may have! Take their fresh catches home and prep them yourselves, or enjoy their endless options of cooked in house sea food. We both agree that it is easily the best chowder we've ever had, and also highly recommend the fish platters!
Where to begin! Looking for the perfect things for a grab and go lunch or dinner? Try Bartlett's famous beefsteak tomatoes or corn, their house made goods, or anything from their carefully curated market. Bartlett's farm is a specialty grocer, working farm, and garden center rolled into one. Go, check it out, you won't regret it! (Make sure you say Hi to Ben + Jerry, the cows)
Maybe seafood isn't your thing- that's ok! "The Brotherhood", as it's known locally, serves up classic american fare as well as seafood: burgers, salads, sandwiches, etc., and the curly fries are not to be missed! If it's a warm day grab yourself a table on their patio, you're going to enjoy this!
