Polpis is a vast area that encompasses miles of land south of Nantucket Harbor. Most of the land is owned by the Nantucket Conservation Foundation, creating lush surroundings for homeowners and renters to enjoy. Often the nearest neighbor is hundreds of yards away. Although just a few miles from Town, it feels a world away. The beautiful landscape of Polpis and the ample opportunities to get outside and enjoy nature make this area a really special part of the island.

Attractions

Winding its way through this beautiful landscape is the Polpis bike path, starting at the beginning of Polpis Road and running past Sankaty Head Lighthouse and Golf Club ending in Sconset. Many would agree that this bike path is the most beautiful of all the bike paths on the island. Polpis is also home to the Windswept Cranberry Bog, one of just a few organic bogs on the East Coast. This bog has walking trails and is a great spot to observe wildlife on Stump Pond or in the “hidden forests.” If you’re really into exploring, you may even find an old beech tree with initials carved into its bark by visitors past. Also, along the way is the Egan Maritime Institute’s Shipwreck and Lifesaving Museum, a Nantucket landmark devoted to the preservation and honor of maritime history and lifesaving in the waters surrounding Nantucket. Polpis is also home to a small harbor branching off of the main harbor, and serves as a launch for small boats as well as for the Nantucket Community Sailing school.
