Nantucket is an island located approximately 30 miles south of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Originally settled by the Wampanoag people, the island became a significant whaling port in the 18th and early 19th centuries, which greatly influenced its cultural heritage.
The island's historic district, with its cobblestone streets and well-preserved pre-Civil War architecture, reflects this rich maritime history. Today, Nantucket maintains its historical character through careful preservation efforts, with many buildings dating back to the whaling era. The island's cultural landscape includes numerous historic sites, including the Nantucket Whaling Museum, which documents the island's maritime heritage. The community continues to embrace its cultural roots while balancing modern development with historic preservation.
