Nantucket
Not designed with cars in mind, Nantucket’s narrow cobblestone streets are best explored on foot or by bike. Follow the island’s winding lanes past historic clapboard homes of sea captains and pre-Civil War buildings – many of which are now home to boutiques and galleries, as well as the island’s famous Whaling Museum (housed in an 1847 candle factory). A high-speed ferry from Hyannis, Massachusetts, or a quick flight from most major New England cities will get you to this charming former whaling capital of the world. Once ashore, don your flip flops and shades and head to the beach to test out your sea legs with an array of water activities, or bicycle around the attractive town, making stops for ice-cream cones, window-shopping, or golf.
