The 5 Best Points of Interest & Landmarks in Gloucester, Massachusetts (MA)
With its sandy North Shore beaches, rocky outcrops, green parks, hemlock woods and wild estuaries full of shorebirds, it is no wonder that Gloucester has attracted such a rich and diverse artists' community. Fitz Hugh Lane, Winslow Homer and John Sloan are just some of the artists who have taken inspiration from Gloucester's beautiful surrounds. Still boasting dozens of galleries and boutiques, as well as museums, theaters and an artists' colony, the city's art scene clearly continues to thrive.

This promenade along the ocean is a soothing relaxing area. Great experience both happy and peaceful. The Fisherman's Statue is an icon along with a beautiful wives statue amidst the of rows glorious flower beds. Also enjoy the friendship of the locals and visitors walking their dogs or relax on the benches. Restaurants , pubs, ice cream shops and terrific shopping is just minutes away.

Both the Fishermen's Memorial and the Fishermen's Wives memorial look out to sea, the public gardens, boating activity, small shops, draw bridge, easy walking path throughout and up to the Stage Fort PARK area and bluffs observing in the inner harbors of Gloucester. The park is perfect for kids to unwind too.
