Halibut Point State Park is located on the site of the former Babson Farm Quarry on the Atlantic Ocean, where granite was mined for construction purposes from the mid-19th century until 1929. In the last years of World War II, the military used the quarry area. The park, which covers an area of 23 hectares, was founded in 1981.

A state park with many contrasts: A quarry, visitor center, lookout, access to the ocean, rock climbing, nice for hiking, lots of wildlife viewing.

In the middle of the Halibut Point Reservation is an old granite quarry that has since filled in with water. In some spots you can see partially detached stone blocks! This deep pond near the ocean only adds to the beauty of this small, hidden gem in Gloucester.
