Summer isn't the only time of year Nantucket has its moment. As Condé Nast Traveler can attest, our island thrives in the fall. "Temperatures on Nantucket sit around the 65-degree mark, making it an ideal time to stroll downtown and pop into Mitchell's Book Corner or the Whaling Museum."

Plan your fall trip with White Elephant and savor the slower pace.
