Although fishing and lobstering are key local industries, Marblehead is best known as the yachting capital of the entire East Coast. This picturesque seafront town enjoys a large, deep-water harbor that offers an unequaled haven for boats and pleasure craft. Characterized as an affluent sailing community, Marblehead is an engaging blend of older and more contemporary buildings, charming cottages, and Federalist-style homes. Magnificent mansions can be found in the Marblehead Neck and Peaches' Point enclaves. Retail development adds to the allure of the area. Scattered throughout the downtown and waterfront districts are upscale clothing stores, quaint art galleries, charming antique shops, and fine restaurants. Excellent schools and well-developed services combine with extensive recreational amenities that draw attention to the waterfront area of this desirable community.
