If you have exhausted your options, or if you are just tired of the city and want to get away for a day (or more) this is the place for you. Boston Harbor Cruises brings you right out to Georges Island where an old Military Fort is located. This is a fast and fairly cheap way to get away for a day and have a picnic or just walk around the fort and take in some history. Be careful of the prices of the concessions there, they can be pricey. Bring plenty of water also. Don’t expect sandy beaches and ocean swimming, but do expect a relaxing and fun afternoon with a great view of the Boston skyline.
