What you may not appreciate is that the pace is a little slower on Nantucket. Many who visit for the first time say they feel as is they’ve been transported back in time to the 1800s when Nantucket was the whaling capital of the world. There are no stoplights on the island, no McDonald’s, no Burger Kings, no Pizza Huts, no Baskin & Robbins, no Starbucks, no franchises at all, save two Mobil stations and a Grand Union. Our whaling museum is truly a first-class museum and quite an adventure to consider while you’re in town shopping on our cobblestoned streets.

The natives who occasionally have to leave say they’re “going back to America.” The legend is that if you throw a penny off the steamship as it’s rounding Brant Point and leaving the harbor, you will return.

And by the way, you’ve really got to come by ferry. There really is something romantic and a bit exciting about getting on a ship and sailing out into the ocean to get to your destination – even for jaded old farts like us.

In 2000 we had 57 classmates come to Nantucket. Come join us!
