News and Events for Nantucket Island
If you’ve spent any time on the south shore of the island (i.e. the wavey beaches) you have probably seen one of our most resilient residents. They may be a bit secretive, a little camouflaged, but these shoreline residents are a fun find and great to explore with kids. We’re talking about the Atlantic mole crab.
The past several days have been stunningly beautiful, though the hot and muggy weather forcing us to seek relief at the shoreline—well, forcing might be too strong a word. How about: it gave us an excuse to head to the beach to swim and play in the water. Whether on vacation, trying to occupy the kids, or just i need of a little salt water solace, many of us have escaped to the beach these past few weeks.
