Beachmont is a relatively insular community within Revere, Massachusetts and is referred to as the Capital of the city by locals. This Boston area neighborhood is diverse with some charming turn-of-the-century homes overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. East Boston and Winthrop border Beachmont on the South. Beachmont Corner has several convenience and package stores, various local fast food restaurants, an Italian bakery, a Spanish foods store and a Halal market. Along the Atlantic, Rocky Beach and Short Beach attract residents looking to escape the summer heat. The Belle Isle Marsh Reservation is adjacent to the Beachmont School and runs to Short Beach. Guided walks show off the local wildlife of Boston's last remaining salt marsh. The Beachmont Yacht Club docks boats on the marsh's main creek. Across the MBTA's Blue Line, Suffolk Downs straddles East Boston and Beachmont.
