North Shore
A boater’s paradise, the North Shore of Massachusetts is rife with a gorgeous waterfront that beckons visitors to come ashore and explore its charming town centers, world-class restaurants, and culturally vibrant, family-oriented seaside communities. Aside from its occasional rocky coastline, the North Shore features some of the best beaches, quintessential New England town centers, and pristine views of the Atlantic Ocean. From sailing Gloucester Harbor to squeaking your feet on Manchester’s Singing Beach to dining atop the Newburyport Rear Range Light, life on the North Shore moves at a slower pace—and that's part of the charm.
