Nantucket transforms after dark. Neighborhoods around Main Street and Whaling Museum take on new energy, new sounds, and new possibilities — and the best way to discover it is on foot, moving between venues the way locals do. Track down Cisco Brewers for the kind of night that only locals know about.
