Nantucket is a small island near Cape Cod, Massachusetts, known for foggy mornings, cobblestone streets, and sea stories. The island was originally inhabited by the Wampanoag people. English settlers arrived in the 17th century, transforming the island into the nation’s whaling port. Today, visitors bike past gray-shingled cottages, historic lighthouses, sandy beaches, and blooming hydrangeas. Nantucket has no traffic lights and carefully protects its old-fashioned charm. Local shops, museums, and seafood spots help keep the island’s rich history alive.
