Join the Cow Neck Peninsula Historical Society for our Magical History Tours. Meet at the Port Washington Town Dock’s red tugboat at 11 a.m. sharp, and walk the shoreline with our knowledgeable guide while learning the fascinating history of early Port Washington.

Topics include the livelihoods that helped Port develop into the town you know today, including: shell fishing, sand mining, aviation, tidal mills, restaurants, our many hotels, schools and much more. See Port Washington as you’ve never seen it before.

Feel free to bring a bagged lunch to enjoy at the end of the tour. Walking tour lasts about 1.5 hours with bench stops to rest along the way. If the weather includes rain, please check our website that morning.
