About Gloucester, Massachusetts
Gloucester boasts America's oldest seaport status. Fishermen's Memorial stands sentinel over the working waterfront. Rocky Neck Art Colony overflows with painter's studios and seafood shacks. Good Harbor Beach unfurls powdery sands backed by dunes. Whale-watching boats slice from the harbor toward Stellwagen Bank, where humpbacks breach close enough to splash your deck.
Cape Ann Camp Site nestles along the Annisquam River, drawing families and anglers to its waterfront pads from $60 nightly. Little River Campground shades rigs under pines, suiting hikers bound for Dogtown's boulder-strewn trails. These three parks position you minutes from Route 128, letting you roam Gloucester's lighthouses, Italian Festa fireworks, and Bass Rocks puffin tours without breaking camp.
