A ROUND THE SOUTH SHOR E
Duxbury
A drive through the coastal town of Duxbury will take you
passed historic homes with ocean views, neat streets,
and manicured lots. It’s a beautiful town to call home. The
commute to Boston is under an hour and it’s 30 minutes to
the Cape. Many residents work in the city and spend their
weekends on the water.
Duxbury Beach is a barrier beach that stretches over
seven miles and provides sand on both the calm waters
of Duxbury Bay and on the Atlantic Ocean. In addition
to being scenic, Duxbury Bay is also home to successful
aquaculture operations, such as Island Creek Oyster. The
company ships oysters from the bay to restaurants all over
the country and has an oceanside oyster bar in town that is
open in the warmer months.
O’Neil Farm is a 145-acre working dairy farm that has been in
operation since the early 1700s. Today the historic property
has been permanently protected as one of the oldest and last
working farms on the South Shore.
