If I had two hours to myself in August, I would go to Miacomet. This is a very special location off the beaten path with no crowds and not even a sign to let you know where it is. As you wind through sand dunes down this meandering two-mile path, turtles come out on either side of the road and youll be struck by the silence of the place. Then suddenly you see it the huge crashing, ocean. There are hardly ever more than three cars here because no one can find it, and you can walk for miles.
PS: This may or may not be my top-secret location for VIP lobster bakes on the beach.
Miacomet, utter peace in Nantucket
