Set sail to see some of nature's most regal creatures on a New England Aquarium Whale Watch expedition. This tour will take you onto the waters east of Boston aboard a high-speed catamaran, and on your excursion you'll see humpback, finback, minke, and pilot whales, along with dolphins and other marine life.
Pay your respects to some of the people who helped to build and define our nation at the Granary Burying Ground. Referred to as “the resting place of Boston's most famous sons”, this burial ground is where the bodies of people like John Hancock, Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, and the victims of the Boston Massacre have been interred.
Dig your toes into the sand at Crane Beach, one of the East Coast's premier beaches. Swimming, sunbathing, beachcombing, hiking and more, are a few outdoor activities you can enjoy while hanging out on the seashore. This is the perfect destination for those who like to explore, as there are over five miles of trails that venture into the dunes and North Shore forestry.
Woodlands, ponds, and exploratory paths are just a few things you'll find at Olmsted Park. This piece of the Emerald Necklace has several trails for you to explore while hiking and biking through Boston's outdoor landscape. If you want to fish, you'll have the best luck at Wards Pond.
