At Gloucester Route 127, Thatcher Road, lies a pearl of the Atlantic shore – Good Harbor. It is one of the most famous beaches on Cape Ann. No wonder, for Good Harbor Beach has the most wonderful sand as well as calm and warm water that welcomes all swimmers.

Low tide unveils a beautiful passage leading towards Salt Island and you can walk over and visit the island. When the tides are high, you can enjoy water activities such as bodysurfing or having fun with boogie boards.
