Salisbury Beach is my favorite. Ipswich is gorgeous. Marblehead, Salem, parts of revere beach. Nahant if you can find parking.

Came to say this. I had the honor of staying at a friend's place on the beach on Salisbury. I'm usually not a morning person but the opportunity to get up extra early to see the sunrise was too good to pass up on and miss.

My wife and i set up or chairs on the beach and when we saw the sunrise, it's was well worth it.

Go to the other side and catch it from Fort Sewell. The neck has the best sunsets, and the other side of the harbor has the best sunrises.

If you're on the south shore driving all the way out to the tip of Hull by the high school can be a really nice view

I go there for sunset sometimes, the storm walls on the west side of Hull are also great, in the summer the sun sets over the Boston skyline.

Edit: I’ve only ever gone for sunsets. For sunrise would probably try some walls on the east side or Nantasket beach I guess.

Sunset is awesome at The Gut. for sunrise, the "free in the winter" parking lot at Nantasket Beach.

Yup, this is where I always went. Can’t be beat. Just ocean and sky. You watch it come right up over the horizon.

Fort Revere in Hull. Amazing views of everything and a cool little fort to explore.

Underrated sunsets across the way in Squantum, too.

I looked at a house there 10 yrs ago really liked the location but the floors and ceilings weren't level and it was a mess of cobbled together diy additions over 60 yrs.

Oh man, it would've been a PIA fixing it up but you'd be sitting on an unreasonable amount of equity right now if you did.

Nauset or Coast Guard. For everyone on here who has lived in Mass for a long time and needs a reminder of what the hype is about.

I always enjoyed watching the sunrise @revere beach. It’s empty besides those early morning runners lol
