Hull, MA


  • Type: Town

Hull is a beach town in Plymouth County, Massachusetts, United States, located on a peninsula at the southern edge of Boston Harbor. Nantasket Beach has fine, light gray sand and tide pools at low tide. - AsNotedIn

There was the clean breeze-cooled sand by day, and in the evenings there were always the great resort hotels a few blocks south ... Nantasket in 1915 was a blend of Monte Carlo and Coney Island. In the paneled game rooms of the Atlantic House, where rooms were $20 a day at a time when boat fare from New York to Boston was $2.50, dice rattled. The beach had the only liquor licenses from Boston to Provincetown.
