Nantucket is beautiful. Hope you had a chance to walk along the beach. You rented

Cars are ruinously expensive on ACK even through our usual supplier Windmill. There are also shuttle buses although these may not have run at a convenient time for the OP having such a short time on the island. Haven't done the Whaling museum in years, and certainly not since they did it up.
ACK is not a good place to get stuck though if transport goes wrong, they don't say '
Fog Happens' for no reason.
