SUMMARY:Lighthouse Weekend Signature Boat Tour to Sandy Hook and Twin Lights
DESCRIPTION:Lighthouse Weekend Signature Tour to Sandy Hook & Twin Lights\nSunday\, August 3 @ 11:00 am – 2:00 pm\nPopularly regarded as NLM’s “SIGNATURE TOUR” this exciting boat tour\, familiarizes passengers with (9) key lighthouses that facilitate safe passage from the Atlantic Ocean into Lower New York Harbor. The series will be NARRATED by Wade R. Goria. Wade is a National Lighthouse Museum historian\, author\, and former New York University professor. \nWe explore a total of NINE LIGHTHOUSES: Battery Weed Light located atop Fort Wadsworth\, the Coney Island Lighthouse\, West Bank and Romer Shoals Lighthouses\, the Sandy Hook Light\, The Twin Lighthouses of Navesink at Atlantic Highlands\, the Staten Island Rear Range at Richmond Hill\, the New Dorp Light\, and the Elm Tree Beacon at Miller Field\, also located in New Dorp.\nAfter sailing past historic Forts Wadsworth and Hamilton at the Narrows\, we head under the Verrazano Bridge passing the former Quarantine stations of Hoffman and Swinburne Islands. \nEnroute to the Sandy Hook Light\, situated near the tip of an eight mile spit at Fort Hancock\, a coastal defense base that once guarded the approach of NY Harbor\, we learn about the role that this proud and historic beacon has played on behalf of NYC’s maritime trade and its commerce over the centuries. \nCruising on the Ambrose Channel\, Sandy Hook Bay and the Shrewsbury River we journey along the ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS past the towns of Keyport and Leonardo\, home to Naval Weapons Station Earle and the world’s longest pier as well as Mount Mitchill\, the highest point on the Atlantic coast from Maine to the Yucatan in Mexico. The Atlantic Highlands is home to one of the most spectacular lighthouses in America: the Navesink Twin Light Station\, the very first structure in America witnessed by immigrants following an Atlantic crossing. \nUpon our return along the Ambrose Channel into Lower New York Bay\, we head near to the Coney Island Lighthouse at Norton’s Point in Seagate\, Coney Island\, where famed Keeper Frank Schubert\, NYC’s last Light Keeper\, resided for 40 years. \nTickets are non-refundable. \nAdults $65 Children Under 12 $45 \nLighthouse Boat Tours commence rain or shine . info@lighthousemuseum.org \nThe boat leaves from the National Lighthouse Museum Admission to Museum is FREE for Boat Tour ticket holders.
