Greenwich History Afloat

Join the Greenwich Historical Society for a historical boat tour of the waters off Greenwich Point. Taking a new tack in honor of its exhibition “Close to the Wind: Our Maritime History,” the Historical Society is offering lucky guests a chance to test their sea legs during this 45-minute cruise. Each of the two tours (scheduled at 9:00 and 10:00 am) is limited to 11 passengers, so reservations must be made prior to the event and will be confirmed the day before. Participants will meet at the dock at Old Greenwich Yacht Club and are advised to dress appropriately for the weather, wear boat shoes or other footwear with soft, non-marking soles and apply sunscreen. Water will be provided.
The Historical Society will also host a booth at Innis Arden Cottage from 1:00 to 4:00 pm featuring a fun, family craft project involving the design of your very own nautical flag.
Two tours: 9:00-9:45 am and 10:00-10:45 am
Admission is free but advance reservations required. Call 203-869-6899, Ext.10.
