Nantucket: A Maritime Retreat Steeped in History and Natural Beauty

In the Wampanoag language of the Algonquins, Nantucket might have meant “far away land.” But at a mere 30 miles from Cape Cod and easily accessible, this Waterway Guide Preferred Destination offers a snug harbor, perfect for sailors and maritime adventurers looking to experience a blend of pristine natural beauty and rich history. As a beacon for seafarers for centuries, Nantucket invites modern visitors to discover why this island has been a beloved haven from the Atlantic's harsh swells.

Situated in the historic Nantucket Harbor, Nantucket Boat Basin is a premier full-service marina. For over 55 years, this full-service marina has welcomed sailors and yacht captains with its 240 slips, pet-friendly docks, and unrivaled concierge services. Whether arriving for a brief visit or a prolonged stay, guests are treated to a level of luxury that marries the marina’s rich history with modern amenities. Reserve your slip with friends, family, and Fall fishing adventures ahead.

Accommodations at Nantucket Boat Basin ensure that every visitor experiences the essence of Nantucket’s charm. The newly renovated Cottages at Nantucket Boat Basin offer serene harborside living, where guests can relax in beautifully appointed 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom cottages alongside the marina.

Nantucket’s culinary scene is as rich as its maritime history. Experience the complete transformation of the Brant Point Grill Deck, where you can enjoy New England cuisine and al fresco dining on the newly renovated deck overlooking the harbor. Further into town, TOPPER'S at The Wauwinet prides itself on dishes crafted from locally sourced ingredients, including oysters harvested just yards from your table.

Guests can experience the total renovation at The Cottages at Nantucket Boat Basin. Perfect for families and pets, guests can relax in beautifully appointed and newly renovated accommodations.

Located alongside the working docks, the nautically-inspired cottages make it easy to slip from the comfort of your room to the adventures that await on the high seas. Experience the two newest, deluxe, two-bedroom Cottages, High and Low Tide, which opened for the 2025 season along the marina.
