July 4th falls on a Sunday this year so Nantucket will host most of their activities on July 3rd. Be sure to come to Main Street for pie and watermelon eating contests, face painting, a dunk tank to cool you off and of course the annual water fight at high noon-this is a water fight like none other and is not to be missed!
The fireworks will be launched from a barge off of Jetties Beach at 9 pm on Sunday the 4th-weather permitting. This is the perfect way to end your holiday weekend. Be sure to tear yourself from your Nantucket vacation rental early to go to Jetties to stake your claim on a good spot on the beach for watching the fireworks. Happy Fourth!
