Nantucket is a magical place. Known for so many things, but one of them are its sunsets. This precious New England island, roughly 30 minutes off the coast of Cape Cod in Massachusetts, attracts the wealthy, the beautiful and the retired and it’s not hard to see why.
I used to go here in my twenties from time to time to get away from urban Boston, especially in the summer. It’s an incredibly beautiful island to bike around and so we did exactly that on one late August afternoon. We also took in some of these warm and lovely sunsets from the ferry on our way back to the main land. Enjoy and be sure to read our other Nantucket coverage, including our general round-up on Nantucket as well as our photo post on Nantucket sunflowers. Hint hint – they’re as stunning as the island’s sunsets.
Here are links to read all of our posts on Massachusetts, Boston and Cape Cod.
Note: The Cape Cod Tourism Board offered some assistance during my stay in Cape Cod, including the ferry across to Nantucket, however all opinions expressed here are entirely my own.
