Skip the glossy resort tours and walk through this quiet, overgrown piece of history in Charlestown. You will see weathered Hebrew inscriptions dating back to 1684 tucked behind a nondescript stone wall. It takes about twenty minutes to soak in the eerie, silent atmosphere. Wear long pants because the grass gets tall and prickly. It feels heavy and raw compared to the polished beach clubs nearby. Go early, avoid the midday heat, and bring bug spray.
