Revere Beach Tour - Best Massachusetts Beach Close To Boston 

I was born in Revere in 1942. Some of my family lived down by the beach, we lived up off Park Avenue. In the summer my mother would take us to the beach by bus just about every day and we would meet up with the cousins, etc. The mothers packed lunches and we would spend most of the day there. Back in the 50's there were all type of rides (carnavale), eating spots, bowling alley, night clubs. etc. The big draw was the "Cyclone" rollercoaster also the "Virginia Rail" I saw the beach about 4 or 5 years ago - condo's condo's condo's. I live in Florida, been here over 50 years, same thing down here. They built up the beach front with condo's and it's hard to find a place to just sit and relax. My memories of Revere are wonderful, for me it just isn't the same.

Thank you for sharing our beautiful revere beach ..its my life here..it had rides and arcades for miles ..3 roller coasters..it was the most amazing beach back in the day as kid..an amusement park along the ocean.

I was there last summer, I'm going again in June i'm soo excited. I miss it soo much❤️

2010 summer I was here Best day of my life

Amazing beach, hope to go there someday

It’s most beautiful during the summer.

Revere gets a bad wrap from the 80s and 90s with drugs, rough hoop eared woman and fights. Its nothing like 1985 anymore. Revere Beach is great. However, take the commuter Rail to Rockport, Gloucester to goto some beautiful picturesque beaches. Revere is gorgeous, bu Gloucester and Rockport have cool Marthas Vineyard/Nantucket styled Shopping streets with 99% less snobby people, and more down to earth folk. I recommend it! But I love Revere. Great history, Great everything.

Thanks for the video, I´ll be there first week of november staying on the apartments you mentioned on lease, looks beautifull.

Thank you for the informative video! I’m visiting next week. I will take you exact route. Anyone ever tell you your voice sounds a lot like Ray Romano?

First Public Beach in the United States.. That's some history there..

Revere Beach is absolutely Gorgeous during the Summer. Has a few bars and restaurants, etc. Both of your co-workers are correct, however. While Revere Beach is gorgeous, should also be noted the Homeless tend to live along the Beach, especially at night in the Summer, and you will see the occasional needle or two. However, from what I can tell, the City is actively trying to keep an eye on the Beach.

I miss it here I used to live at the st George condominium when I was young still get sad when I see the building.

I was here in October 2017 😀I’m coming again very soon!!

A nice beach to visit off 128/95 cape ann heading to Gloucester is winngasheek beach it beautiful it cost 25 to park if you dont get there by say 830 or 9 am you may not get in. But at low tide there is a sandbar and also rocks you can climb on it's one of my favorite beaches and they also have snack bar and slush stands on beach after I think 4 PM its free

They call the shelters Pavilions. I'll be there today metal detecting.

Sorry I think it's about 30 minutes but after the beach you go 15 min further up the the highway to rockport for some shopping also a nice place to visit

Some good roast beef and pizza shops on the beach strip Grew up in Malden on the Revere city line! Spent plenty time all over north/south shore mass Miss the vibes Shirley Ave was know for bullshit, gangs drugs but that’s all over Boston area !

I use to go to the rides in like 1975 the clock I guess was there from the 1940s they would rent bathing suits and they had clock to know when to return the swim suit. 1978 snow storm finished the games and bowling alley kinda sad

Omg i live her and i live 2 minutos away

8:36- 2 legs only at revere beach my 3 legged cousin- :(

don't get stuck with that needle

No lifeguards?

nothing about Revere Beachs HISTORY??? Hello??? Paul Revere?!

My girlfriend lives in Medford. Two summers ago she wanted to go to Revere beach and get some lunch, walk around and sit on the beach. First off, the food we got at Kelly's was dog shit. I was looking forward to a plate of fried shrimp and they were all uniform pressed and frozen, thin, dry and disgusting. Her sandwich was gross too. Then we walked around and between the bums, nobody speaking English, the overflowing barrels and the sticky filth and grime it was terrible. Then we went to sit on the sand for a while and watch the ocean. It was like being on some dirty beach in a Third World shit hole with nothing but locals, loud, obnoxious kids and everyone talking loud and yelling in foreign languages. The icing on the cake? When we decided fuck it we had enough, I looked behind me and less than a foot from my hand was a used uncapped needle. What a fucking experience! I hadn't been there in probably thirty five years. Even back then it was nothing great, guidos cruising in cars with loud music and too many people but man, this place has really gone to hell. This past year they had a problem with gangs of kids showing up and fighting, so much so that large groups of police had to be called in to get it under control.
