  • Forecasting Your Nantucket Vacation

    Visiting Nantucket is possible anytime of the year, though summer is the most popular season, when there is warmer, sunnier weather, making visiting the beach, fishing, and bike riding, very pleasant. The summer season typically begins around Memorial Day weekend and ends around Labor Day weekend, though fall events and early spring festivals attract visitors to the island outside of the high season.
