CHARLESTOWN

Charlestown's beach community character and natural beauty provide the backdrop for a seasonal live music scene that peaks in summer.

The Charlestown Rathskeller has anchored the local scene for decades, drawing audiences from across South County. Beach areas and local establishments add seasonal entertainment options.

Summer brings a beach party atmosphere, with tourists and locals mixing at venues near the shore. The off-season reveals a quieter scene supported by year-round residents.

Tip: The Rathskeller is the must-visit venue. Check beach area bars for additional summer options.
