    Had not been to the islands in decades but took the high speed ferry over for a couple of days. As it was September, it was not crowded and everyone seemed to have a seat. Boarding for both legs was smooth although the return ferry was 15 minutes late. I do not visit them but there are restrooms on board and a cafe which serves Sconset (local to Nantucket) chips. Many passengers had dogs but they seemed well mannered and there were areas where they are not allowed if you are fearful.

    The beach was clean and free We paid 20.$ for parking for the day. This included other beaches in Hyannis. There was a snack bar and restrooms. What was cool about the beach is the ocean was on one side and if you walked across the parking lot there was the bay with all the boats in it. Beautiful scenery

    This was just a half hour stop if that on our way to Boston. We walked around looked at the memorial and they also have another war memorial across the sidewalk. It’s free they have public bathrooms so it was a nice little stop

    Very friendly establishment, great live musician. Arrived late on a Friday, off-season, but the staff was friendly and knew their beers. Nice food options for a brewery also

    Sankaty light house and the village of Nantucket are worth the visit.
    Hyannis when the buses are doing what they are supposed to do is a good thing.
    Found a reasonably priced motel walking distance from the Steamship Authority terminal in Hyannis.

    This is a really good church to go to! The choir during the weekday masses sounds incredible, the seats are nice and comfortable, and, best of all, the Priests and Deacons are some of the best people you'll ever meet!

    We stopped to view the JFK Memorial and took a short walk around the park. Nice beach area with calm water-perfect for small children. There was a clean bathroom on site and the parking was free. We spent some time looking out at the boats in the water. Perfect spot for some quiet reflection.

    While the complex is small, you get to see things here that you wouldn't normally see anywhere else! This really is a hidden gem - and I really recommend it!
    The best things here include full-size planes and plane cockpits, a real spacesuit, and flight simulators which make you really feel like you're in a plane!

    Fun place, we had a good time here, the staff was friendly and let us try out the beers and showed us a detailed description of the beers on a menu. We each ordered a flight and played one of the many card and board games they have available to play while you're drinking and socializing.
