The New York Times- 36 Hours in Nantucket, Mass.
Now that you’ve worked up an appetite biking, swimming and walking, reward yourself with lunch at Millie’s, a casual but top-notch Mexican-inspired seafood place, a two-minute walk from Madaket Beach. An ideal selection: Eel Point tacos (seared tuna with wasabi crème fraîche; $22) and a Gibbs Pond salad (lobster salad, corn, mixed greens, tomatoes and fingerling potatoes; $23.95).

Chase the late afternoon sun west, five-and-a-half miles from town, to Madaket Beach. It’s one of the best on-island spots to watch the sinking sun turn the sky an Instagram-worthy fiery red. Fish tacos and margaritas at Millie’s, a boisterous (and usually packed) Mexican joint nearby, are a must.

For a memorable end-of-day view, follow Madaket Road west to Madaket Beach and watch the sun get swallowed by the Atlantic Ocean. Then walk to Millie’s, 326 Madaket Road (508-228-8435, milliesnantucket.com), for dinner. The Hither Creek is grilled striped bass in corn tortillas with tomato and sweet corn salad, guacamole, and lime sour cream — perfect with an ice-cold Madaket Mystery served in a 16-ounce Mason jar. (The contents of the latter are a closely guarded secret.)

The first thing we did after deciding to have a welcome party was book the food truck from Millie’s, one of our favorite restaurants on the island and a place many of my cousins and all of my siblings have worked in at one point or another. The Millie’s crew parked their truck in my parents’ driveway and guests lined up for fish tacos and steak quesadillas. We figured everyone loves Mexican food (and a good margarita!) and we knew it was the perfect way to welcome our family and friends to Nantucket.
