Beautiful beaches, charming local shops
Coastal life is one of the premier attractions the area has to offer, and residents of Lynnway have no shortage of options when it comes to spending their day by the water. With three beaches lined up right next to each other—Nahant Beach, Lynn Shore Reservation, and King’s Beach—residents of the area can start their day with yoga on the beach, before heading to well-known Lolly’s Bakery for authentic Hispanic bread and baked goods.
