Little known, but historically crucial, the legendary Isles of Shoals, located 6 miles off the New Hampshire and Maine coast, are an intriguing archipelago of 9 islands steeped in history of pirates, ghosts, shipwrecks and buried treasures. Portsmouth Harbor is a unique working port with tugboats, tankers, forts, and lighthouses proudly guiding our mariners safely through its waters. Rugged fisherman and worldly traders have depended on these waters as a way of life for centuries, and before that Native Americans called the Piscataqua River Basin and the Great Bay Wilderness, one of New England's largest salt water estuaries - their home. Today the Seacoast is an amazing blend of commerce and scenic stories. The perfect interactive learning experience.
Transport your students into a fascinating bygone era, virtually
unchanged for over a century. Stories of early fishing villages,
pirates, treasures, ghosts, geology, bird watching, islands, three
lighthouses and more.
Prices include NH state wharfage fee of $1 per person.
