View of Nahant Beach from Nahant Road

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Nice views from Nahant Road as it runs from Lynn to Nahant. All along the causeway, you get views of the water on both sides. There is traffic on the road, so if you want to stop to enjoy the view, make sure you pull off the road.
