Lynn Shore Reservation is a protected coastal reservation in the city of Lynn, Massachusetts. It includes 22 acres (8.9 ha) of beaches and recreational areas.[1] From north to south, King's Beach, Red Rock Park and Lynn Beach are located along Lynn Shore Drive and Nahant Bay, a small bay of the Atlantic. The reservation shares athletic fields with Nahant Beach Reservation in the area around Nahant Rotary, a traffic circle at its southern end.[2][3]

The reservation is part of the Metropolitan Park System of Greater Boston, and is managed by the Department of Conservation and Recreation,[2] which also manages the adjoining Lynn Shore Drive parkway.
