From Nahant, Massachusetts, Byway's registries place 3 scenic byways within 30 miles.
Understand
The town would be an island offshore from Lynn, but for the 3 mile beach, causeway and parking lot that ties the two together. Nahant once served as pastureland for mainland farmers. They enjoyed the security of bringing their cattle to the island at low tide, and then being isolated on the island until access was restored at next low tide.
