Re: Destinations around North Shore, MA
I guess not to many North Shore folks. Well if you are still looking for a few more places. As you come out of Beverly Harbor there is a good size anchorage on back side of Misery Island. Next spot is Black Beach in Manchester which is right before you get to Magnolia. You will usually find upwards of 30 boats anchored there on weekends. Back side of cranes beach is the next spot. Go up the essex river and turn right as soon as you enter the mouth. This is a great spot to anchor and you can go explore cranes beach as well. Next spot and one of my favorites in the Merrimack River. There is a public a public dock there that you can tie up to and explore Old Newburyport. Michael Harborside is a great place for food and drinks. There are dozens of restaurants, bars and shops to explore. Hope this gives you a few options.
