2024 Tourist Attraction

Editors’ Choice

The Crane Estate, Ipswich 

You don’t need to be a tourist or an out-of-town guest for the 2,100-acre Crane Estate to be a must-visit spot here on the North Shore. It’s the kind of jaw-dropping place that should be on everyone’s list. There’s the gorgeous beach with long stretches of soft white sand and great visitor amenities; marshes and wildlands; the Great House, which is stunning inside and out; and the outdoor “rooms” and manicured gardens that transport visitors to another era. The property hosts an array of incredible events, like concerts, the annual Roaring Twenties Lawn Party, and Christmas at Castle Hill. 290 Argilla Rd., Ipswich, 978-356-4351, thetrustees.org/the-crane-estate

Hammond Castle Museum, Gloucester

The more you explore, the more there is to be amazed at when you visit Hammond Castle. The exterior overlooking the ocean is stunning all by itself, but the inside is equally awe-inspiring with its magnificent art and architecture. Events throughout the year are the cherry on top, like concerts, classes, and Halloween favorites like trick or treating at the castle and the Goblin King Ball. 80 Hesperus Ave., Gloucester, 978-283-2080, hammondcastle.org
