Review:
Revere Beach is a hard packed sandy shore in the Massachusetts Bay north of Boston.
Ideal for swimming, the crescent-shaped beach offers blue waters protected from waves by the bay. Easily accessed by railroad since the 1800’s, the coastal town has long been an entertainment destination.
Rollercoasters, rides and amusements, ballrooms and dance pavilions have lined the shore since the 19th century.
Recognized as America’s first public beach, the site is now a National Historic Landmark.
Visit the Boston Harbor’s largest surviving salt marsh, the Belle Isle Marsh Reservation, the 1630 Rumney Marsh Burial Ground, and the 1835 Fenno’s Tavern.
