Massachusetts was where the original colonists settled and it has a lot of historically significant things to see and do. There are also plenty of parks and family friendly places to make any trip to Massachusetts one to remember.

81. Fort Revere Park (Hull)

Fort Revere overlooks Boston Harbor and was used as a defense against the British during the Revolutionary War through WWII. The fort was restored for the country’s bicentennial in 1976. The park now offers amphitheaters and picnic facilities. This is good place to have a picnic and take a long walk, so spend about an hour here.

82. Oak Bluffs’ Gingerbread Cottages (Oak Bluffs)

One of the small towns in Martha’s Vineyard, Oak Bluffs is famous for its gingerbread cottages. There’s more than 300 pastel colored small houses that look as if they’re straight out of a fairy tale. Once a year, they have Grand Illumination Night where all the cottages are lit by japanese lanterns. Some for the Grand Illumination Night if you can, but spend at least an hour or so walking around the grounds, discovring thesse houses.

83. Plum Island (Newburyport)

Plum Island is an 11 mile long island just north of Cape Ann that appeared in Captain John Smith’s earliest maps of the area. In addition to the beautiful beaches, you’ll find a lighthouse, wildlife refuge, and an inn right on the beach. Spend a night here and enjoy the sunrise.

84. Wellfleet (Wellfleet)

A gem of a New England Coastal town, Wellfleet is an ideal vacation spot. It’s quiet and tranquil with beaches and a small, quaint downtown area with a theater and some great restaurants. Book a weekend at a B&B here for a relaxing break.

85. Bartlett’s Farm (Nantucket)

This is the largest and oldest family owned farm on Nantucket. They have a garden center, bakery, market, and even a restaurant. Come here for an hour or so to get some fresh flowers and produce.
