Nantucket, United States

Why Walk Nantucket

Nantucket was the whaling capital of the world in the early 19th century, and its wealth from that era is preserved in the grand captain's homes on Main Street and the cobblestone lanes of the compact downtown. When petroleum replaced whale oil, the island's economy declined, inadvertently freezing the architecture in time. Today the entire island is a National Historic Landmark with strict building codes that maintain its character.
