Leave Only Footprints
There is an adage: “Take only photographs,
leave only footprints.” We hope that you will
take this saying to heart during your island visit.
Though Nantucket is graced with many
miles of beaches, little of the coastline is
actually public property. Many property owners
have generously allowed public access to their
beachfront. In return for this privilege – and it
is indeed a privilege – we ask that both visitors
and residents treat all of our island beaches
with respect. This includes obeying “No
Trespassing” signs, using only designated entry

points, and disposing of litter properly.
