Revere Beach
Sand-free playtime at Gibson Park
While the beach is the primary choice for outdoor recreation, there are additional activities available beyond boating and sunbathing here. Cooler weather calls for a trip to either Oak Island or Gibson parks, which both feature playground equipment, basketball courts and baseball diamonds. Gibson Park also has a community garden and other amenities coming soon, including a boat and rowing launch. Boat owners can join the Point of Pines Yacht Club and rent a slip on one of the floating docks. Adjacent to the General Edwards Bridge that connects Revere with Lynn, anglers can cast a line off the fishing pier, also popular among bikers. The beach and bay lie to the east of major Revere thoroughfare, North Shore Road, and to the west, the Rumney Marsh Reservation covers 600 acres. A center for salt marsh and estuary habitat education, the park welcomes many biology researchers as well as those looking to birdwatch, fish or ride a paddleboat.Sacrificing yards for Revere Beach access
Home styles range from new beachfront condo buildings with community amenities to 20th-century single-family properties. “There are rentals available, but most residents are homeowners,” says Elbadaoui. Architectural styles include New Englanders, Victorians and raised ranch styles. Two-bedroom condos tend to sell between $450,000 and $600,000, while detached homes with three-to-five bedrooms cost around $450,000 to $800,000 depending on location and proximity to the water. Some areas, like the Point of Pines community, charge an HOA fee for residents to enjoy private beach access. Most homes sit on small lots, but the Revere Beach shores offset the lack of yard space.Celebrating kites, sculptures and art
Plenty of events take place throughout Revere Beach’s warmer months, including a farmers market at the Waterfront Square and a summer concert series. The annual Kite Festival, held every May, fills the sky with color and attracts residents of all ages. People from all over the world gather on the beach for the International Sand Sculpting Festival to see experienced and amateur artists at work. With free admission, anyone can make memories with three full days of fireworks, live music and vendors. To close out the season, the September Revere Beach Art Festival spotlights local artists’ work as well as crafts and live music. In the winter, instead of sandcastles, artists create ice sculptures accompanied by chili cook offs and hot chocolate tastings.Shopping along Squire Road
Revere Beach sits close to a Market Basket and the Wonderland Marketplace, with a Marshalls and Big Lots. Within just 1 mile, Target and Stop & Shop are right off Revere Beach Parkway on the south side of the beach. Nearby cities such as Chelsea, Everett and Boston have plenty of shopping centers and dining options for those who want to explore outside the neighborhood. When spending a day on the beach, residents can choose from various restaurants off the boulevard. Kelly’s Roast Beef covers lunch with burgers, seafood and sandwiches, and Bianchi’s has served up pizza since 1952. Kell’s Kreme has cold desserts, like ice cream and popsicles, to combat the heat of the summer sun. After getting ready for the evening and washing off the sand, Dryft provides seafood dishes and craft cocktails in a modern, waterfront dining room and bar. Marina at the Wharf offers meals with a view of the sound, where boats launch off private nearby docks.Impressive JROTC program at Revere High
Primary students can attend the Paul Revere Innovation School, which scores a C-plus grade on Niche and offers multiple after-school programs to accommodate later pick-ups. Children in sixth through eighth grade head to Rumney Marsh Academy, which also earns a C-plus grade. The B-rated Revere High School joined the College Board’s AP School Honor Roll in 2023 for their high test scores, and the JROTC program has won nine state championships in a row.Skipping the traffic with buses and trains
Revere Beach gives residents convenient public transportation options. “Many locals commute to work in Boston or at the nearby airports,” says Elbadaoui. Travelers don’t have to worry about driving in traffic because the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (the T) Blue Line train runs from both Wonderland and Revere Beach stations into the city. For those who prefer to drive, routes 1 and 1A flow nearby and can lead to interstates 90 and 93. Locals can avoid paying for parking at the Boston Logan International Airport, about 4 miles away, by taking one of the T buses.
