Welcome to a Cape Ann Vacation, the best way to experience the North Shore area of Massachusetts. Cape Ann is an area 50 minutes north of Boston at the beginning of route 128 offering great beaches, accommodations, seafood, fishing and whale watching.

The Cape Ann communities include Gloucester, Rockport, Manchester-by-the-Sea Essex, plus Magnolia which is a village within Gloucester. Other great locations near Cape Ann would be Ipswich, Beverly and the historic “Witch City” of Salem.

Cape Ann offers many accommodations choices that include some of the best Bed and Breakfasts and historic inns in the world. There are plenty of year-round accommodations to choose from with ocean views and access to the beaches. Even in the winter there is always a warm and friendly place to stay when you want to avoid any crowds.

Start your Cape Ann vacation with a visit to the Cape Ann Historical Museum which houses some of the most awesome original paintings including an extensive collection by the famous Fitz Hugh Lane. Then visit the many parks and open areas including the Boulevard overlooking the harbor and is home to the famous “Man at the Wheel” statue and the Fisherman’s Wives Memorial, both commemorating fishing families and the sacrifices they have made over the years.

Whale Watching is one of the best things to do on your Cape Ann Vacation because Gloucester is considered the “Whale Watching Capital of the World”. Gloucester is “America’s oldest working seaport” and has the perfect setting for whale watching. Whale watch cruises are only available from late spring through early fall and they offer a great way to see the ocean, plus historic Gloucester harbor, Eastern Point Lighthouse, and other sights as your depart for the whales.

You’ll find plenty of great restaurants on a Cape Ann Vacation that will include the freshest seafood and lobster and terrific prices. If you are a history buff, Essex Massachusetts features the Essex Shipbuilding Museum and many fine restaurants including Woodman’s the inventors of the fried clam. Take a shopping adventure of antique shops full of furniture, fine original oil paintings, jewelry and collectables and the museums around Cape Ann will make your treasure hunt a delight.

Rockport Massachusetts is on the northern tip of Cape Ann and will offer amazing colorful sunsets at Folly Cove located on the west side of the island. Bearskin Neck is located on the rocky coast of Rockport and is home of Motif #1 and many art galleries, restaurants and shops. Halibut Point State Park is just up the road where you can walk around a huge quarry and find spectacular locations for bird watching. Climb to the top of the look-out tower and watch the ocean crash on the rock below.

Cape Ann has some of the most beautiful beaches on the East coast that includes Half Moon Beach at Stage Fort Park, Wingaersheek Beach, Front and Back Beaches, Pebble Beach, Long Beach and the popular Good Harbor Beach. At the end of a day of touring, shopping in our fabulous downtown area, scouting the art galleries on Rocky Neck, or just swimming and sunbathing, you are sure to want a great meal.

Located in Gloucester is the village of Magnolia where you will find the medieval Hammond Castle Museum. This museum is available for unforgettable weddings and functions, and is open for tours where you will find many of the inventions of the original homeowner John Hays Hammond, Jr., who is second only to Thomas Alva Edison in number of patents.

Plan your Cape Ann Vacation and explore, swim, sun, sail, shop, eat and sleep in magnificently beautiful surroundings that only Cape Ann has to offer.
