Revere beach
10 Lena Hartley

The Revere beach offers a picturesque view of the coastline with an enchanting sunset that leaves you in awe. As you look up, you'll see airplanes soaring through the vast blue sky, adding to the already magnificent scenery. The beach is truly a sight to behold, and the combination of natural beauty and man-made wonders is a perfect blend for a memorable experience.

This stunning beach is conveniently located just a short 30-minute drive from Boston, offering spectacular views of the city skyline that will make you feel right at home. While there is a small fee for parking, there are plenty of spaces available to ensure you can enjoy your day without any hassle. There is also a cozy restaurant on site where you can indulge in delicious pizza and refreshing drinks, although many visitors opt to bring their own food and beverages. The water is crystal clear and you can wade out quite far before it reaches waist-deep, even if you're petite like me at 5'2. With ample shoreline to stretch out on and no sharks to worry about, you can soak up the sun and enjoy a relaxing day at the beach. This spot is a must-visit for locals looking for a perfect beach day getaway.
