Make a Day of It. Better Yet, Stay for a While
Come for the event. Stay for everything around it!
Pick apples in the morning. Explore a historic downtown in the afternoon. Catch the sunset along the coast. Shop small, enjoy dinner, and settle in for the night.
Greater Cape Ann communities are close enough to explore together, but distinctive enough to fill a day, weekend, or midweek escape.
