Gloucester is primarily a fishing village/town of medium size on the northern shore of Massachusetts. Rockport is the next town to the Northeast of Gloucester and is more of a tourist/summer home destination. Both towns are rich in history and offer much to see for most anyone interested in Massachusetts seacoast towns & their histories.
Wally,
Have not spend any extensive time in this area, I find that you captured some very good and interesting New England coast. Hope to see more of them, thank you.
