Review:

Newburyport is a small coastal town and historical seaport in northeastern Massachusetts. Typically, many boats are moored at the port, which is still quite active. The town’s former customhouse is available for touring and is the location of the Custom House Maritime Museum, dedicated to maritime history.

Another historical attraction in the city is the Cushing House Museum and Garden, which is a federal-style mansion with beautiful gardens. Outdoor activities include nearby Plum Island, which features a national wildlife refuge along with beaches, lighthouses, and opportunities for fishing and birdwatching. Other opportunities to spend time outdoors around Newburyport include Lake Attitash and Maudslay State Park.
