HALIBUT POINT STATE PARK

This park on the coast in Rockport, Massachusetts has a really unique landscape with paths leading to an old quarry, and beyond that, the ocean.

The flora is beautiful, and the rocks leading up to the ocean are amazing. It's on the northern point of Cape Ann, so there are sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean. Climb the tower near the parking lot, and then meander out to the boulders. It's an excellent place to watch the sun set. While you're there, check out Dogtown- an abandoned inland settlement on Cape Ann- to the south, and then go have dinner in Gloucester.
