Nahant Oceanological Society

The Nahant Oceanological Society is a location appearing in Fallout 4.

Layout
This location consists of two buildings a house and a laboratory next to it. Inside the house there are two floors, and a Mr. Handy robot that will say random facts about marine life. A door on the second floor of the house can be unlocked with Casey's key, which is found in a toolbox in the cabin of the wrecked boat just east of the house. Inside the laboratory there are walkways that hug the walls on the ground level, downstairs one will find a power armor station, locked containers (master steamer trunk, expert safe (unlock able by terminal) and novice first aid).

This area is home to a couple of Mirelurk Razorclaws and killclaws hiding nearby. As soon as the player goes near the storage shed at the back of the 2 story house, they will pop up underneath you. Inside the lab, there's always one razorclaw and in some instances, a legendary mirelurk.

Notable loot

 * A Vault-Tec lunchbox can be found in the kitchen inside the house.
 * An issue of the Wasteland Survival Guide can be found in the room with a weapons workbench inside the house.

Behind the Scenes
The Nahant Oceanological Society is likely based on the real world Northeastern University Marine Science Center, both are located on the eastern tip of Nahant. The name suggests it may also be partially inspired by the much larger Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, although this is 100 miles south of Nahant, and not part of the Fallout 4 game map.
