Where: Steps Beach Path, Nantucket View Map
Water Type: Salt water
Type: Calm
Good for: Swimming
When visiting the island of Nantucket, visiting this beach is a must. The views to be had here are just lovely. Glimpse Nantucket Sound and Great Point Lighthouse as you approach the hill that leads down to this gorgeous beach. There is gentle surf, perfect for swimming, but beware of the many steps to down to the beach (that will have to be climbed when leaving!) There is very little parking.

Steps Beach is perfect for swimming, families, and small children - the sand bar is fabulous!

Beautiful beach roses in bloom and long sand bars to explore. View from the steps is breathtaking.

Gorgeous beach anytime of the year. Be careful in the surf, it can be strong. Swimming for little ones best done over at children's beach.
