A little piece of heaven - Nantucket
Boat journey was very good and the time flew in. Hired bicycles and rode approx 8 miles to a beautiful beach where we seen seals swimming in the water. On our return we stopped for a couple of drinks at a bar. Also had some shrimp which was so tasty. Nantucket is stunning and I wish we had stayed a couple of days and seen more of the island

Off to Nantucket
We had a beautiful day going to Nantucket aboard the Steamship Authority ferry. With the help of the front desk, we were able to prebook the tickets and understand how the handicap parking worked. This organization knows how to move people like clockwork while being pleasant and helpful.

Hyannis to Nantucket Day Trip
When we went in early May, this ship was empty. We had ample choice of seating both inside and out. We departed on time however, we stoped in the middle of the ocean to conduct an emergency drill which was a little scary. The ship was what you would expect I guess. The ship could use some cleaning. It had a little cafe area inside with snack and beverage options and tables to sit at. The top deck is great for sightseeing and getting some sunshine. The interior decks offer good viewing as well but the top deck is wonderful. Arriving into Nantucket was stunning and the debarring process was seamless. All of the stations were nice and employees, while some seemed irritated, were informative.
