Bask in the historic charm of America’s Hometown

Coastal Historic Charming Picturesque Vibrant Family-Friendly

Nicknamed “America’s Hometown,” Plymouth was originally settled by the Pilgrims in 1620. Rooted in a rich history, Plymouth offers plenty of museums and iconic historical sites to explore the storied past of the town and the country. However, Plymouth is also decidedly modern, embodying the classic charm of seaside New England with lobster excursions, whale watching, deep-sea fishing, and a strong sense of community.

Plymouth residents come together for a wide variety of family-friendly events, including the Annual America’s Hometown Thanksgiving Celebration and Parade, Fourth of July Fireworks, and a full schedule of free concerts throughout the summer at Pilgrim Memorial State Park, home of the famous Plymouth Rock. Recreational opportunities abound at the sprawling Myles Standish State Forest as well as numerous parks, fields, and beaches in Plymouth. Shopping options range from local boutiques in the downtown area to national retailers at Colony Place. The many metropolitan delights of Boston are less than an hour’s drive away too.
