Welcome to Monomoy

Nestled along Nantucket’s north shore next to Shimmo, Monomoy is a quiet, high-end neighborhood offering breathtaking views of Town, Coatue, and the surrounding harbor.

The area features luxury homes, many with direct beach access, expansive lots, and designs that embrace the island’s natural beauty. Monomoy captures the essence of a classic Nantucket summer, with excellent shellfishing, boating, and a strong connection to the outdoors. One of its newest attractions is the Nantucket Land Bank’s Creeks Preserve—an 8-acre property overlooking the salt marsh and harbor, perfect for scenic walks and stunning viewpoints. Conveniently located between Town and the airport, Monomoy provides both privacy and easy access to island amenities.

Monomoy Beach is ideal for paddleboarding, kayaking, and scalloping in shallow, clear waters, as well as family picnics and summer fun. Just east, Cathcart Beach is a secluded driving beach tucked between Monomoy and Shimmo, perfect for a quieter day by the water. The calm harbor and salt marshes, combined with spectacular sunrise and sunset views, make Monomoy a haven for those who love boating, shellfishing, and classic Nantucket tranquility.
