Neighborhood

Encompassed by yacht clubs and marinas, South Salem is the dream community for anyone who loves boating.

The neighborhood (and Salem) has had quite the past – tourists come to South Salem to experience the maritime and witch trial historic sites. The harbor is where residents and visitors can explore the docked Colonial-era vessels. Other family-friendly attractions here include the home that was featured in the movie Hocus Pocus, Hamilton Hall, and the living history museum at Forest River Park.

This museum – Salem Pioneer Village – affords locals and visitors the opportunity to experience life back in the 17th century. Many festivals are also held at the site, including the Salem Shakespeare Festival. After a tour of the colony, visitors enjoy a relaxing break at the park’s riverfront beaches.

Residents of South Salem are comforted by the proximity to Salem State University, and adore the community’s beautiful New England-style residences and trendy eateries.
