Hull straddles the divide between Boston Harbor and Massachusetts Bay in eastern Massachusetts, and its position between sheltered harbor waters and the open Atlantic has defined it as a coastal community. Nantasket Beach runs along the ocean-facing side of the peninsula, while the harbor side faces Boston’s maritime approaches. The area developed as a summer resort in the 19th and early 20th centuries. At the northern end, Fort Revere preserves a former coastal-defense site. Hull is also home to the Paragon Carousel, a hand-carved 1928 carousel that survives from the former Paragon Park.
