Charlestown has numerous dining choices from bagels to world famous fine dining all within walking distance from the Green Turtle. Walk the freedom trail to the North End and downtown Boston. Water taxi is the fastest way to get to the Green Turtle from the airport. They will drop you off and pick you up at your front door. The water ferry is just 3 piers away from the Green Turtle which will bring you to Long Wharf which is home to the aquarium and a short walk to Fanueil Hall/Quincy Market and the cost is just $1.75 per person each way. There is also a free bus shuttle in the Navy Yard to North Station where you can travel to any parts of the city by subway. The Green Turtle Bed and Breakfast offers two private rooms. Enjoy the comforts of a bed and breakfast and the privacy of a hotel room. Each room has a kitchenette and a private bathroom en suite. Breakfast pastries are placed outside your room each morning. The Green Turtle's rooms were designed for comfort above all and the only reminder you're floating in Boston Harbor is the sound of the gulls, motion of the sea, and reflection of the ocean dancing on the ceiling.

    Our short visit to Boston in July 2011 was defined by this amazing discovery - a really special & different experience. Karen & Jon are the most delightful hosts and it was fun to see how they lived - next door to the B&B on their yacht. I still have the image in my mind of them fishing for their dinner as we headed off in the water taxi to the airport. Green Turtle was indeed a highlight of our 3 week trip to the USA. Delicious breakfasts, fascinating traffic on the river, and good access to all we wanted to do in Boston. Do what you need to and get yourself there!


    Fantastic stay!

    A delightful surprise. Our hosts, Karen & Jon, were friendly and most accomodating. The breakfasts were just to our liking. The apartment was cozy with an extraordinary view. The Harbor Walk added to our experience. We wish we could have stayed longer
