Massachusetts boasts some truly breathtaking beaches, and Boston’s North Shore is home to some of the state’s best. And some of the best beaches on the North Shore can be found on Cape Ann — the state’s smaller, but not lesser, cape, which encompasses Essex, Gloucester, Manchester-by-the-Sea, and Rockport.
Cape Ann isn’t just gorgeous marshland and scenic swimming destinations: It’s got great food, too. Whether you’re looking for a seafood shack or something more upscale, a quaint bistro or a greasy spoon diner, Cape Ann has you covered.
Here’s a map to get you started visiting some of the best restaurants on Cape Ann this summer.
