Winthrop Shore Reservation — Attraction in Winthrop

Winthrop Beach is a nice, quiet, local beach. Rocks are everywhere though. When the tide is low, I like to walk out to the 5 Sisters (the breakers) and climb the rocks. Far to the left, there is a mini breaker to walk out to. I like jumping off the sea wall onto the sand. All the way to the left, there are rocks, so you can hop from rock to rock. There are plenty of tide pools in case you are doing a research project...

Pretty shoreline with a mostly pebble beach, some sandy spots here and there. Wide sidewalk with showers and water fountains in season, also a restroom and free street parking. Great area for running along the shore, through the neighborhoods, and down and around Deer Island. Good cafes and restaurants in the area, all so close to Boston and Logan Airport. MBTA Blue Line will get you...
