Our city also offers an exciting and diverse multi-cultural restaurant scene, 27-miles of Atlantic coastline with various amenities and a resurgent downtown. Our Marina Bay overlooks Boston’s beautiful skyline with shopping and nightlife. New to the city is a 27-hole championship golf course, recently voted one of the top ten of its class in the nation by Golf Digest Magazine. Granite links, the highest point in Quincy with stunning views both north and south.

Once home to shipbuilding, and the granite industry with many of America's most prominent statues and monuments sculpted from granite quarried here.
