Review:

Singing Beach is a beautiful, large, half-mile-wide beach in Manchester-by-the-Sea, with a famous bathhouse built in the early 1920s and a nice, small canteen with snacks. The beach has public bathrooms, showers, and changing stalls as well as fairly large parking lot. The beach has designated swimming areas with attending lifeguards as well as areas for sports. Above the beach is a grassy area with benches and a shady canopy of trees. There is a trail along the beach, but walking on the sand or at the edge of the water is a pure pleasure with the firmly packed sand. The beach got its name from the sound the sand grains make when they rub against each other inder certain conditions, a phenomenon not completely scientifically explained but fun nevertheless.
