(23,898 posts)Little bit of a ride, but just hop onto 495 south and head for Concord and Lexington. So much to see, so much early American History. Have a great time.
Oh and it isn't the North Coast of Boston. It's just the North Shore.

(26,614 posts)great in general). The Saugus Iron Works is really interesting, if you've never seen anything like it. There are a lot of places to bike near and along the coast (which is gorgeous), and the various towns/cities along the coast--Gloucester, Portsmouth, etc--all offer historical interest and good walking, shopping, sitting opportunities...

If you've never seen whales up close, make sure to go on a whale watch. They have been very frisky this year, and once you've seem them up close, you'll understand why "save the whales" is more than just a cliché expression.

If you like seafood, I recommend Brown's in Seabrook NH - it's BYOB, casual, good food
