About 3.4 miles from the tunnel the road will go up a ramp and reach a rotary. Take the first exit (a right) off this rotary, (staying on 1A North). (Follow directions from the end of Route 16 at this point).

Drive 2.5 miles, and go over a bridge; you are now in Lynn. Route 1A continues straight for another 1.8 miles, where it takes a sharp left at a set of traffic lights, you should bear right on the Carroll Parkway, it is still the same road (following the signs to Nahant/Swampscott). There are two Dunkin Donuts shortly before this turn-off. In 0.5 miles you will come to another rotary, take the first exit onto the Nahant Road causeway, at the welcome to Nahant sign, there should now be water on both sides of you.
