Stately sea captains' homes, sandy beaches, salt air and sunshine: Our Island Hopping Family Adventure on The Vineyard and Nantucket is perfect for the leisurely pace of two wheels for all ages. Martha's Vineyard, a celebrity hideaway, is made up of old whaling towns, steep cliffs and rolling farmlands. Nantucket, on the other hand, has changed little since her days as a whaling center in the 19th century. Cobblestone streets and gas street lamps line Nantucket Town while the rest of the island is flat, sandy stretches broken by beaches, cranberry bogs and pounding surf.
