All about Massachusetts

Massachusetts’ bustling capital, Boston, draws in travelers seeking to explore the city’s extensive history, legendary baseball stadium, and impressive arts scene — but this northeastern state offers varied geography and options beyond its biggest city. There are opportunities for outdoor adventure, rest and relaxation, and arts and culture throughout the state. Western Massachusetts and the Berkshires is the state's rural mountain region popular with ski resorts and snow-shoeing for outdoor athletes. The towns and many farms of the central region host fall harvest celebrations and farm-to-table dining with some of the state’s best fall foliage driving routes.

Sturbridge Village is ideal for history buffs wanting a glimpse into life in New England during the 19th century. Cape Cod, a hook-shaped peninsula abou 70 miles south of Boston, is known for its beautiful beaches and lighthouses. Beachgoers and island lovers can take a ferry to the islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard for swimming, surfing, and miles of bike trails. The state’s rich maritime tradition is evident in the northern coastal towns of Newburyport, Rockport, and Marblehead.

Boston is rich in history and culture — dine at one of its award-winning restaurants or make your way through the Freedom Trail, which weaves through the city passing iconic sites of the American Revolution and gorgeous green spaces like Boston Commons and Public Garden.

The Berkshires

Located on the far western border of the state, The Berkshires are popular with outdoor enthusiasts, artists, shoppers, and foodies.
