North Shore

This is the region along the coast between Boston and New Hampshire. While known for its rocky coastline, beautiful beaches, and natural harbors, the North Shore offers plenty of history and culture.

One of the most famous towns along the North Shore is Salem, a beautiful city that boasts a spooky history, known for the notorious Salem Witch Trials. Gloucester, a prominent fishing port, and former shipbuilding center is also the home to the famous Gorton’s Fisherman.  The towns of Gloucester and Rockport are home to some of the most popular beaches in Massachusetts, including Good Harbor and Wingaersheek.

While North Shore is a coastal area, it’s also made up of many inland communities. This diverse area has been made famous by books and movies. Portions of the movies Shutter Island, Manchester by the Sea, and The Perfect Storm were shot in Beverly and the surrounding areas.
