Nantucket
Luminous & Charming Island
Nantucket Island’s beauty is unparalleled in the American North East, perhaps even the world. Located 30 miles out to sea, off the southern shores of Cape Cod, in Nantucket has been influenced by the native Wampanoag, pioneering Quakers, African Americans, sheep farmers, Cod fisherman, and of course, the sea faring whaling captains and their crews. Nantucket also has a history of strong females, women who operated many of the island’s early businesses, their husbands being at sea. All these inhabitants have woven the fabric that is the Island.
