Artists from around the world carved works of art from sand for the 16th annual Revere Beach International Sand Sculpting Festival held this weekend. Last year Jeanine and I were among the 1 million visitors to the festival and decided to go again this year.
After our visit we decided to explore nearby Nahant where we discovered beautiful beaches, homes, and ocean views.
Egg Rock, sometimes called Elephant Rock, pictured below is located in Nahant Bay about a mile off shore. The three acre island once had a lighthouse but is now an uninhabited bird sanctuary.
