OPENING OF THE BAY--SHUTTLE TO
THE GURNET LIGHT
Saturday, MAY 24, 2008
Join us and take a trip to the
historic Gurnet Point light and Fort Andrews (known as Fort
Gurnet during the Revolutionary War) as well as the historic
Coast Guard Life Saving Station, five miles out to the end of
Gurnet Point. Learn about the history of these two marvelous
structures.
Climb to the top of Gurnet Light and enjoy the vista of
Massachusetts Bay. On a clear day, the view of Provincetown is
breath taking. Go back in time and tour the Life Saving Station
with the rescue boat and all the equipment in place as it was in
1960. Relive the history of these two important American
Historic edifices as told by your tour guides.
Free
