Duxbury

Duxbury Bay defines the setting of Duxbury — sheltered behind Duxbury Beach, it gives this Massachusetts coastal town its broad tidal-water character and close connection to the shore. On the bay’s western side, residential streets extend inland from a community shaped by the early history of Plymouth Colony. Duxbury was incorporated in 1637, and Mayflower passenger John Alden made his home here; the Alden House Historic Site recalls that association. Duxbury Beach forms a long barrier between the bay and the Atlantic, and the coast remains central to local recreation and seasonal life.
