Don’t-Miss Dining

Order up some crab cakes at the Sconset Café, not far from Siasconset Beach. This intimate place has a neighborhood feel to it, and the food is fresh and tasty.

At The Pearl, enjoy an upscale menu with exotic flavors. The Classic Pearl Wok Fried Lobster features a salt-and-pepper-spice crusted lobster with fresh lo mein, grilled lime, and Asian barbecue sauce.

American Seasons on Centre Street is an eclectic bistro with fine creative cuisine, a wonderful wine list, and great seasonal specials showcasing local fare in cosy, yet elegant ambiance on a quiet island street.

Point of Interest

Nantucket isn’t exactly known for its hills, but if you’re looking for panoramic views of the island and beyond, Altar Rock is one of the highest vantage points on the island. The rock sits in the Middle Moors conservation land, which is enriched with kettle ponds and cranberry bogs. The entrance to the trail to reach Altar Rock is off of Polpis Road,  directly across from Quaise Road. Once you reach the top, there are many other trails to explore.
