Pack your bags and head to the beautiful waterfront oasis at Manchester-by-the-Sea in Massachusetts. This precious seashore town has gorgeous scenic walking paths, waterfront locations for an afternoon picnic, great restaurants, boutique shops, book stores and more! I highly recommend spending a peaceful weekend or day trip to this lovely town.
Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts is the perfect location to visit during the spring, summer and fall. During the warmer months, enjoy the water activities and strolls by the Harbor or spend the day at the beach. In the fall, take in the picturesque view of the foliage while strolling downtown and at Tuck's Point.
BEST RESTAURANT IN MANCHESTER-BY-THE-SEA:
Cala's - located in the heart of downtown and a short walk from the harbor is a great place for lunch or dinner. Cala's has a variety of food options from lobster rolls to salads to turkey clubs, black bean burgers, clams, tacos and more! If you are a french fry connoisseur, Cala's has five different variations for you to try.
BEST THINGS TO DO IN MANCHESTER-BY-THE-SEA:
Beach - Spend a day by the water at Singing Beach or Tuck's Point Beach.
Reed Park - Grab a cup of fresh brewed coffee or warm cup of tea and start your morning with a magnificent view of the harbor. If you have time, bring your favorite book and enjoy the serenity.
Sailing on Cape Ann - Hit the water and spend a day on the Atlantic Ocean.
Stroll - Manchester-by-the-Sea has numerous places to walk, including the downtown, the harbor, Reed Park, Masconomo Park and by the stunning United Church of Christ.
Shop - Explore the great shopping with numerous women's clothing stores, bookstores, souvenir shops and cafes. I recommend checking out Mahri for beautiful clothing and jewelry, Manchester By The Book for good reads, 4 Beach for souvenirs and The Laughing Gull Cafe for a cup of coffee, tea or pastry.
Tuck's Point - Spend an afternoon having a picnic and watching the boats from Tuck's Point. Tuck's Point is home to a beautiful white gazebo on the water which is the perfect place for a photo-op! This charming location is located a short drive from downtown.
Happy Travels!
XOXO,
Katy
