See another side of New England without the hassle of driving, and take a scenic coastal cruise to the historic seaport of Gloucester on a 500-passenger boat. The tour stops for two hours at Studio Restaurant in Rocky Neck. Explore the area known as Salem Willows, then head back to Boston as the sun goes down. The M/V Cape Ann is equipped with three decks, dinner facilities and room for dancing. The two lower decks are heated and offer good protection from the elements. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Historic fort |
William J. Day Boulevard Boston, MA 02127 United States +1 617 268 5744 |
Jutting out into Boston Harbor like a long finger, the fort of Castle Island (which is now connected to the mainland) watches over the approach to the inner harbor. During Boston's early years, this fort provided necessary protection to the shipping trade. Walk the fort's periphery and enjoy great views of the harbor and islands, or sit back and watch the planes taking off from the nearby airport. The "sugar bowl" trail, roughly one mile around, is popular with rollerbladers. Local shops and bakeries in South Boston offer a pleasant diversion. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A Walk Along the Harbor |
374 Congress Street Suite 307 Boston, MA 02110 United States + 1 617 482 1722 (The Boston Harbor Association) http://www.tbha.org/ mail@tbha.org |
Boston Harbor is a beautiful retreat from the city in any season. It is also the departure point for ferries to Cape Cod and the South Shore, whale watches and moonlit cruises. The history of the harbor has not been forgotten; the Boston Tea Party took place here and is recreated annually. The New England Aquarium is located on the water's edge. As you walk by, peek at the large tank to the left of the entrance—sometimes there are harbor seals living in it. Review © 2007, Wcities |
