Nantasket Beach in Hull

Nantasket Beach is a beautiful, three-mile-long stretch of sandy beach located in Hull, Massachusetts. Originally known as Constitution Beach, it was renamed in the 19th century after a local Native American tribe, the Nantasket, meaning "at the strait or low-tide place." Today, Nantasket Beach is a popular tourist destination, offering swimming, sunbathing, and beach activities during the summer months. Visitors can also explore the nearby Hull Lifesaving Museum, which tells the story of the heroic surfmen who patrolled the coast during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
