Old Harbor
Old Harbor sits right in Rockport's picturesque harbor, one of the most painted and photographed spots on the entire Massachusetts North Shore. You're mooring up in a working fishing village that has barely changed in over a century, with Bearskin Neck's galleries, seafood shacks, and shops just steps from the water. The whole place has a genuinely unhurried, old-New England feel that's pretty hard to find this close to Boston.
