Neighborhood

The coastal area between Boston and New Hampshire, the North Shore is a massive cluster of cities including Salem, Gloucester, Beverly, Essex, Rockport, and more. Rocky coastlines, wetlands, beaches, and harbors fill this area with natural beauty. This historic and cultural region of Massachusetts offers parks, golf courses, museums, historical landmarks, and so much more.

Tour a medieval style castle from the early 1900s, Hammond Castle Museum, on the coast of Gloucester, or visit Castle Hill in Ipswich for 165 acres of land with a historic mansion and access to Crane Beach. Travel over to Historic Downtown Salem to learn about the Salem Witch Trials, and venture to Manchester by the Sea on Cape Ann, the setting for Kenneth Lonergan’s 2016 film Manchester by the Sea, to admire this iconic, scenic beach town.

With so many cities to choose from in the North Shore cluster, there’s something for everyone in this coastal oasis.
