Central to this is the City’s thriving historic downtown that has an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants and art galleries. Rockland is on the forefront of the local food movement and boasts a number of highly acclaimed farm to table restaurants and eateries.

  Rockland is renowned for its traditional working waterfront and expansive harbor that extends 5 ½ miles from the Breakwater Lighthouse to the North to the South End Shipyard and Snow Marine Park to the South.  The harbor has facilities that cater to commercial fishermen, marinas and boatyards, marine based industries and recreational boaters and cruise ships. There are numerous waterfront parks and public amenities such as a boardwalk and harbor trail that provide waterfront access for residents and visitors.
