Any recommendations on seaside towns that would be fun for a 5-6 day stay within an 8 hour drive of Boston? Going next week, so not a place that's a ghost town in October.

Rehoboth Beach in DE is 7 hours, nice restaurants, some fun places to stay. Of course you can always go to NYS and try out Montauk or the Hamptons.
I recently stayed in CT near Fairfield at an Airbnb that provided access to a couple local beaches. More quiet but nice place to get away.

Agree with this. Great boardwalk town. I’m also a fan of the nica-boli from Nicola’s pizza. It’s like a calzone but sooo much better.

Mystic CT; Portland ME

any of the towns along the coast between Portland, ME and Bar Harbor, ME. Maybe like Camden or Belfast?

Also interested :)

Provincetown is always good. You could get down to Cape May in NJ in 8 hours depending on traffic.

If you wanna stay local, I recommend Ipswich, MA. Super towny vibes, very welcoming people, and a bunch of cool places to go nearby
