Park

The Bass River Walkway runs from the commercial property on the corner of Green and Elliott Streets, behind the White Hen Pantry and the Starbucks Café.  The pathway follows the sidewalk along Elliott Street until the official pathway picks up on the McDonald’s property.  The path goes behind the Stop and Shop and the Bass Haven Yacht Club.  The end point is on McPherson Drive.  The majority of the walkway faces the Bass River, which is beautiful during the high tide.  There are benches and places to rest along the majority of the route.  Parts of the path are also shaded.

Also known as Brown Park.This park is heavily-utilized during the Little League baseball season, but also provides other recreational opportunities throughout the year. Vittori Park is located on the corner of two busy streets, so safety can be a concern.

Also known as Dane Street Beach. The beach overlooks Beverly Harbor and Salem’s waterfront.  Lifeguards during the summer make this a safe place to swim.  The large expanse of lawn between the street and the beach is a great place to picnic, relax or play impromptu games of soccer, softball and frisbee while enjoying the sea breeze.  The hill overlooking the harbor has picnic tables tucked among the trees, providing a secluded place to enjoy a picnic with a view.

Also known as Linsdsey Park. This is a low-lying open field-type park surrounded by trees. It is located in a densely populated neighborhood and is heavily used by the residents in Ryal Side.
