Top 5 Spots To Watch The Fireworks

Recently ranked one of the best places to celebrate the 4th of July, Marblehead residents will have plenty to do this weekend. The centerpiece of the weekend festivities will be the fireworks and harbor illumination display at 9 p.m. on Sunday.

For those who will be watching from a boat, evening tide is at 5:42 p.m. and will reach 8.82 feet followed by low tide at 11:57 p.m. of 1.52 foot. Sunset is 8:42 p.m.

Here are the Top 5 Places to Watch The Fireworks

According to the Marblehead Fireworks Committee:

Riverhead Beach - you will see both sides of the fireworks and illumination. Also the place with the most parking.

Fort Sewall - One of the best places to watch but limited parking. If you're going to watch from Fort Sewall, walk. 

Fort Beach -- The view is great, but it's not well lit or easy to walk so wear sneakers and bring a flash light.

Crocker Park - A favorite spot to watch, the park will also host a live band, which will play until the star of the fireworks and then continue after. 

Chandler Hovey Park  - The perfect place to watch the show, but be careful -- there is no parking at the park after 6 p.m.
