Mayor Tom Koch & the City of Quincy proudly invite residents and visitors alike to celebrate Quincy’s rich maritime heritage in honor of America’s 250th anniversary with two signature waterfront events this summer at Marina Bay: the Quincy Maritime Festival, July 3–5, and a special visit by the internationally renowned tall ship Oosterschelde on July 17 & 18.

Held along the Marina Bay Boardwalk, the Quincy Maritime Festival returns as a free, family-friendly Independence Day weekend celebration showcasing the City’s deep connection to the sea, shipbuilding, and coastal traditions. The three-day festival will feature live entertainment, historic reenactments, children’s parades, maritime activities, and waterfront attractions for all ages.

Later in July, Quincy will welcome the historic Dutch tall ship Oosterschelde to Safe Harbor Marina Bay as part of the City’s ongoing America 250 commemorations. The Oosterschelde, one of the world’s finest restored sailing vessels, will make a ceremonial arrival on Thursday, July 16, escorted into Marina Bay by the Quincy Police Marine Unit. Public deck tours aboard the historic vessel will be offered on Friday, July 17, Saturday, July 18, & Sunday, July 19, giving residents and visitors a rare opportunity to step aboard a living piece of maritime history and experience one of the last authentic tall ships of its kind still sailing today.

With free admission and free parking, the Quincy Maritime Festival and Oosterschelde Tall Ship visit offer something for everyone — from history enthusiasts and food lovers to young families and music fans.

One of Massachusetts' most stunning "castles," Castle Hill on the Crane Estate sits on a hill looking over miles of white sand beaches. Located in Ipswich, this 59-room English manor looks like a filming location for a royal movie. It is easily one of the most beautiful historic homes in America. The estate was built about one hundred years ago by Richard Crane. He made a massive fortune selling plumbing fixtures and valves. He bought the hill and hired the best architects to build his dream summer home. The main house is called the Great House. It features giant stone walls, grand fireplaces, and elegant libraries.

The most famous part of the estate is the "Grand Allée." This is a rolling, half-mile-long grass mall that stretches from the back door straight to the ocean. It is the size of several football fields. Tall trees and stone statues line the sides. Walking down this green runway makes you feel like you are walking directly into the sea. Today, you do not have to be a billionaire to visit. The estate is open to the public for tours, picnics, and hikes. You can explore the beautifully designed gardens, walk the wildlife trails, or hang out on Crane Beach at the bottom of the hill. In the summer, people bring blankets to the giant grass lawn for outdoor concerts under the stars. It is a perfect mix of old-world European wealth and classic New England coastal beauty.
