Review & FAQ:

One of Boston’s landmarks, Revere Beach is a large public beach in Revere, Massachusetts, about 4 miles from downtown Boston. Founded in 1895, Revere Beach is the oldest and the first public beach in the country. If you do not like crowds, find another beach. On a hot summer weekend, you can find over 250,000 sun worshipers stretched along Revere's sandy shores. The beach is famous for a whole line of festivals, such as the annual New England Sand Sculpting Festival, when the large part of the beach becomes a sand art gallery. There is almost always some kind of music blasting from the bandstand. Being easily accessible by public transport, the beach is a very popular place for Bostonians of all kinds to relax and grab some sun.
