Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Refuge
Friday, August 22, 2025 | 5PM
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive over sand to a seaside tent where you’ll find live music, a delicious raw bar, beach games, and an inviting campfire. Hear from community leaders and special guests as they share updates on conservation efforts at the refuge. Gather with friends and neighbors to celebrate the natural beauty of Coskata-Coatue and its important role as a barrier beach.
For the past 50 years, The Trustees has protected the pristine beaches, miles of scenic trails, and critically important wildlife habitat that make up Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Refuge. Beyond serving as an idyllic location for relaxation and recreation, Coskata-Coatue also shelters Nantucket Harbor and downtown Nantucket from storms and flooding.
100% of event proceeds support the protection and stewardship of Coskata-Coatue. Invite your friends and enjoy a special evening of community building and positive impact.
