Sounds of Swampscott

People find water-related sounds to be the most relaxing. The ostinato of ocean waves can relax or help you sleep. The sound of rain can be another source for relaxation.

I have always been attracted to water. When I visit different places, seaports, sailing areas, beaches, oceans, etc, hold a special place in my heart. Naturally, the beach area of Swampscott is a favorite of mine. People find water-related sounds to be the most relaxing. The ostinato of ocean waves can relax or help you sleep. The sound of rain can be another source for relaxation. When I am home, the sounds of the heavy rains and thunder provide me a sense of security. The town of Swampscott is more than the beach. Route 1A provides a rhythmic concerto of car horns and motors humming. Neighborhoods are accentuated by the voices of their residents, children, and other sounds of daily life. Which part of Swampscott is sonically pleasing to you? Which areas suffer from noise pollution? If one wanted to take a sonic vacation of Swampscott, which areas would you suggest?
