Location

From the famed Fisherman’s Memorial Monument to Eastern Point Lighthouse, Gloucester is renowned for its New England charm and history. Aquarius on the Back Shore in Gloucester provides not only a spectacular waterfront setting, but a convenient location to dozens of restaurants, museums, boutique stores and sandy beaches, all just minutes away from your home on the Atlantic Ocean.

And with Boston only 45 minutes away and New Hampshire and Maine an easy drive via Interstate 95, you’ll have the best of all worlds…that is, if you ever want to leave your waterfront home at Aquarius.
