Carson Beach

Boston

🌊Water was actually comfortable and definitely felt warmer than many of the beaches I've visited in New Jersey
🏖️A very "New England" beach and parking can be a challenge

Carson Beach delivers a surprisingly swimmable Atlantic experience right in the city. The water's warmer than you'd expect, the views across the bay are excellent, and there's plenty of room to spread out, though low tide can get muddy.
