Although Nantucket is a very relaxing atmosphere, there are many activities at the beaches to keep you busy. Go sea kayaking, charter a boat to go
sailing or
sports fishing, fishing, or windsurfing on the great waters. Lounge on the sandy beaches or swim in the waters of Children's Beach, Jetties Beach, or Surfside Beach. Children's Beach is the ideal spot to bring your children not only because of calm, shallow waters, but also because it has a playground for them to run around in when tired splashing in the waters. At Jetties Beach, fun is found playing volleyball, sunbathing, people watching, and eating while propped on the sand. The most popular beach by far is Surfside Beach, though, because of its perfect mix of surf and sand.
