The hikes all go in circles, so you won’t get lost.  And the ocean is involved.

Located at the tip top of Cape Ann, Halibut Point State Park is an excellent, doable hike for just about everyone.  Novice hikers of all ages can enjoy trails that circle a huge quarry and lead to a rock scramble that ends at the ocean. From the high point of the state park, you’ll be able to look across the quarry and out over the ocean. In a way, the view is evocative of the Virgin Islands. That’s right. The Virgin Islands.
