    Great spot for kids. Music camp was great too. Great way to start the day for a young family. Clean enough to kick off the shoes and play.

    A very wild place…read more An absolutely beautiful island of the west coast of Nantucket. it's completely wild, pristine and totally clean and free. The only problem is you can't go there. Or at least I can't go there. I've sailed and kayaked around it but it is very, very, very private and uninvited guests are not allowed. I'm definitely one of those uninvited guests. Only a few dozen families live there during the summer and I have heard that there is no water or utilities. You can see huge yachts parked out near the island and I suspect the people that owned the yachts have the houses on the island. I have certainly never seen any property for sale and I can't imagine what the price would be. So, Tuckernuck is a gorgeous, wild and pristine place 30 miles away from Cape Cod. For that it gets 5 stars. Unfortunately it's only for a select few and that select few sure as hell doesn't include me. That gives it 1 star. Ergo 3 stars.

    Tuckernuck is nowhere near as wild and pristine as the previous reviewer makes it out to be, though…read morethe Tuckernuck Land Trust has acquired some land to attempt to save a bit of the wild. Too many houses have been built. Many of the original settlers of Tuckernuck were Dunhams and Coffins, family of mine from Nantucket, and prior to running a single telephone line there in about 1901 it was extremely isolated. Very few people lived there year round (my great-great-grandfather's brother being one who did, but only after making his fortune in the lumber business on the mainland), and they made their living by bird hunting and fishing. Today it's a summer retreat for the rich, none of my family still owns (or could afford) anything there, and we're as unwelcome as the first reviewer. I can get no closer than Madaket.

    Always a great spot to come to visit. Sankaty Head is a part of Siasconset, aka 'Sconset, proper,…read moreand located on the east side of the island. The views are really incredible! You are up high, and there is a downward view of the Sankaty Head Golf Club which borders the station. A nice view and of Nantucket - just beautiful. If you look north, you can make out Great Point Light too if there is no fog or haze. This location is a great for amateur radio too; with a hand-held walkie, you can easily reach the Dennis and Barnstable 2 meter/VHF repeaters. The Nantucket Amateur Radio Association holds their International Lighthouse Lightship weekend special event station at this location. There is a couple of benches, foot traffic, bicycles, and cars; this is a heavily visited site. Parking area for cars. The area has fencing around it. Watch for ticks! Bring a chair if able. Enjoy the views!

    About a 20-minute drive from the Nantucket Downtown District area…read more If you have access to a car while visiting Nantucket, stop by the Sankaty Lighthouse. It was nice that it wasn't crowded, and the walking path is easy to traverse. There's a fenced area over by the bluffs that has nice views of the beach and ocean. There's signage indicating some facts and history. You can't go inside the lighthouse, as expected, but you can't walk right up to the front door, which is kinda neat. Expect to spend about 30 minutes here, mostly with a smooth drive. AT&T cell service is limited so screenshot and directions in case you're out of range of internet coverage!
