When to Visit
While summer is the most popular season, each time of year offers its own charm:
Summer (June to August) - Peak tourist season with the warmest weather, ideal for beachgoers and outdoor activities. Book accommodations early, as the island can get busy.
Fall (September to October) - Quieter than summer, with mild temperatures and beautiful views. A great time to explore without the crowds.
Spring (April to May) - Spring brings blooming flowers and pleasant weather, with fewer tourists.
Winter (December to March) - The island has a peaceful, festive feel, with events like the Nantucket Christmas Stroll in early December. Some businesses may close during winter, so plan accordingly.
