From the shelter of the Inner Harbor marinas, there is plenty to see and do in Gloucester. The area's history is long for an American town: Gloucester was first settled only 3 years after the pilgrims landed in Plymouth. Gloucester is best known, however, for the Georges and Grand Banks fisheries. The largest and best-known seafood business (Gorton's) gave us the iconic fisherman image of a man in slickers and a sou'wester hat. Gloucester was one of the land-based settings for Sebastian Junger's book "The Perfect Storm" about the sad demise of a local fishing boat, the Andrea Gail. While you're in town, tip a cold one at the Crow's Nest (334 Main St., 978-281-2965) in honor of the crew.
