HULL BEACH

It’s not the caribbean but it's a beautiful beach, clean and with restrooms.  Located 20 miles south of Boston, Hull beach offers a place for the family and friend to enjoy.  


I took this photo at my secret spot while walking in good company.

What to expect?

A day at the beach full of fun and relaxation.  You can find restaurants, shops, museums, spas, boutiques, antiques, and more.  On June 13 there will be a Car Show, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.


Can I take pictures? Yes.

CASTLE ISLAND

It’s located in South Boston, the home of landmark Fort Independence.  


What to expect?  Free admission to the Fort during summer time.  They also offer free tour, or just simply walk inside the Fort on your own.  The home for Sullivan’s spot that sells ice cream, hotdogs, lobster, fries, water, etc. This is a great place to walk, bike, run.  It also have a very nice playground for children.  You can even get to the Kennedy Library.  


The island connects with Carson Beach, where you can tan on sunny days, have a picnic with your family, volleyball with your friends, kite-surfing, windsurfing and during summer they open a kiosk that sells food.  Restrooms.

En par de ocasiones tome vacaciones en Boston y area (cuando residia en mi pais, desde que vine a Canada se acabaron mis vacaciones internacionales, es como viviendo al reves), y en una de esas ocasiones era verano, por lo que visite con frecuencia la playa que me quedaba mas cerca: Revere Beach, seguro la conoces, es muy encantadora, y llamo mi atencion que dice es la primera playa publica de America, supongo que como America se refieren solo a USA. Te lo menciono por si acaso no has ido, para que la incluyas en un proximo itinerario. Saludos.

Hola Juanml
Si, he estado en Revere inumerables veces, inclusive puse un post hace tiempo de Revere con toda la historia, recientemente puse fotos que tome un domingo en la tarde. Algunas fotos estan en el post: Visiones que te hacen decir..." y el otro esta en el indice bajo el año 2008 y titulado "Un Poco de Historia de Revere Beach", por si lo quieres leer.
