If you are visiting Marblehead and want to explore the great outdoors, check out this listing of all the public places in town, including parks, playgrounds, beaches and trails. I never knew that there were so many parks in this lovely town, although I am familiar with several of the playgrounds.
The structures at Devereaux beach are fun to visit at the end of the day, when most of the beach crowd has gone home and the parking is free. This picture was taken in the late spring of 2007. If you get hungry, there is a clam shack located here where you can enjoy traditional New England beach food. Along with seafood rolls and hot dogs, favorites in my family, they also make a great Raspberry-Lime Rickey.
Another playground, Hobbs Playground, is perfect for the young kids. The structures not over-sized and there is a fence between them and the street.
I’ve heard good things about the Orne Playground, although I haven’t made it over there myself.
There are many great reasons to visit Marblehead: shops, restaurants and the sea-side, sail-friendly atmosphere… I’ve now found a whole list of spots at which I can kick back and relax with my family!
Here, again, is the link to the “Parks, Playgrounds, Public Ways, Beaches, Conservation Areas and Trails” in Marblehead.
