The coast of New Hampshire is as rich in natural beauty as it is American history. Picturesque New England oceanfront, the seacoast region has long, sandy beaches, working ports, offshore islands, and popular resort towns and villages that date back nearly four hundred years! The Isles of Shoals, a short ferry ride out into the Gulf of Maine, are also considered to be in the seacoast region of New Hampshire and provide additional breathtaking views in the form of four islands. The resort community of Hampton Beach, located in Rockingham County, has long been a popular tourist destination with its boardwalk, weekly fireworks shows, free summer concert series, and rows of restaurants, shops and other amusements. Cities such as Portsmouth offer fun activities for the whole family, including the Children's Museum of Portsmouth, which lets kids explore dinosaurs, outer space, and music all in one place.
