Gloucester, Rockport, Essex, and Manchester by-the-Sea are the four communities that make up the New England region of Cape Ann. Located 30 miles north of Boston, MA, Cape Ann is easily accessible by car, train, or boat.

The history of Cape Ann is the story of courageous men and women who braved harsh winters, fished wild seas and rooted themselves into New England's ruggedly beautiful coastlines. The spirits of ancient fishermen and shipbuilders are the foundation of these towns, and though they are immortalized in museums, statues and memorials, it is the carrying on of these great New England traditions by today’s generations that keep those spirits alive.

From early settlers to Hollywood filmmakers, the beauty of Cape Ann has drawn people from around the world. Gloucester’s historic fishing port, Rockport’s famous art galleries, the unique antique shops of Essex, and the old, New England charm of Manchester by-the-Sea, make Cape Ann the perfect vacation destination.

Meander around the coastlines on foot, bike, trolley or boat; discover coves and beaches around every corner. Have fresh caught lobster for dinner and watch the sun set from your oceanfront bedroom. Head out on a whale watch or deep sea fishing trip (bring your camera). Relax in one of the many parks, see local art exhibits or follow the crowd to street festivals and fiestas.

Come, travel to Cape Ann and experience the place that has captivated people since the 1600’s.
