It's super secluded, so you'd enjoy the solitude if you're a thinking machine. There's an inviting little mound that beckons you to explore the view beyond, but alas, it's just a little lagoon and some buildings. Still it's a nice getaway, if you're into movies like the Shipping News, Michael Clayton, and Manchester by sea.

This beach made my whole day complete. There's parking, sometimes you'll see fisherman taking in their catch of the day.

Hang 10, if you must. Phone a friend? Connect. Or disconnect, whatever. Sand was fluffy, not rocky. Tide was low, not too dank. 'One last hurrah for the summer,' I said to the pals. Store near entrance. Ice cream was available for purchase. Parking = pay by app.

Wow!! I can't believe this beach is in Massachusetts! This is hands down the best beach I've been…read moreto in the state. I've been living on the North Shore for almost 9 years now, and today was my first time at Wingaersheek Beach. I can gladly say this is now my favorite beach ever!! We got there around 11 AM and stayed until 4 PM, and honestly, I could've stayed even longer. If you're not a Gloucester resident, parking is $40+ AND you need to make a reservation in advance. Personally, I actually like this because it helps keep the beach from getting overly crowded, especially since it's a smaller beach and, in my opinion, the best one! They also have a small food spot with burgers, hot dogs, salads, ice cream, lemonade, iced coffee, and more. There's also a little shop with beach essentials like chairs, sandcastle toys, towels, etc., which is super convenient. And of course, they have bathrooms! Such a beautiful and lovely beach. Seriously, I'm already looking forward to coming back!

I think I just found my favorite spot for planespotting in Boston. Even though I went here at…read morenight, when it was really hard to see, I still found this little alcove quaint and enjoyable. It is the Gravelly Point of Boston. Why? Gravelly Point (a park in Arlington where parkgoers can see planes land into Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport literally over their heads), has planes. Constitution Beach has plane taking off and landing right in front of you. Gravelly Point has trains, with the CSX RF&P Subdivision and Long Bridge walking distance. Constitution Beach has the Blue Line on the T running underneath your feet. I also like the pedestrian bridge that looks like a series of waves cresting and falling into the ocean. Something about a fall beach makes it all the more prettier...

There is absolutely no parking except if your lucky enough to find a spot on one of the side streets. I love to enjoy a sunset here during warm weather, it's so beautiful with the planes flying by as the sun sets. Definitely a 4 Star location.

There is no parking lot, but one can park on the side streets and walk there. Very few people come here. It has stunning views of Boston's inner harbor, and the Boston skyline, as well as some good views of local parts of Winthrop. One wouldn't come here for swimming (or fishing); for that go to Winthrop's main beaches, Winthrop Shore Drive, or Yirrel Beach. But it's a great place for a walk. It is named after a Veteran of World War I, Simon J. Donovan.

There are no deer really but you might see coyotes so keep your dogs leashed. It is also not a foresty island, it is mostly made up of the wastewater treatment plant at the center, with this 2.6 mile loop trail around the perimeter. That does not take away from the views of the islands and the city skyline. There is a beautiful Celtic cross memorial up a small hill on the trail, that looks out to Boston and commemorates many Irish immigrants who perished and were buried in unmarked graves, as were many Native Americans here. There is a fishing pier and a rock wall walkway. No real facilities or food, so bring your picnic. There are many benches to sit on, and the flat rock wall itself. The walk from the Deer Island parking lot to the Celtic cross is about 12 minutes, depending on your pace. Watch the planes line up to make their meticulous touchdown on Logan's 2-foot landing strip. :) It is a pleasant and reflective stroll and you can do as much or as little as you wish.
