Nantucket island, 30 miles (48 km) off the coast of Cape Cod (map), is accessible by ferryboat and plane. Passenger FerriesIn summer, passenger ferryboats run to Nantucket from Harwich Port and Hyannis MA on Cape Cod, and from the neighboring island of Martha's Vineyard MA. The most convenient ferry departure point is Hyannis. Traditional ferries take about two hours to make the voyage, fast catamaran ferries take only one hour, but at a higher fare. Both types of ferries are comfortable and convenient. More... Car FerriesMost visitors do not take cars to Nantucket. They rent a car, bicycle or scooter there, or use the convenient shuttle buses. But if you must take your car, the Steamship Authority runs car ferries from Hyannis's Pleasant Street Dock to Nantucket six times daily. The fares are high. More...
