Rockport sits on the Massachusetts coast where granite ledges meet productive fishing grounds. The harbor holds striped bass and bluefish in season, while nearby rocky structure attracts cod and pollock. Local anglers work the breakwaters, jetties, and shallow flats that define this working waterfront, and the town's fishing heritage means good access and plenty of spots within a short walk or boat ride.
