See all- Star Island ( Walking) & Portsmouth Harbor Cruise/Tour!Isles of Shoals Steampship Company, Portsmouth, NH
Join the FUN! Let's spend the relaxing afternoon cruising over to Star Island ( narrated) and Portsmouth Harbor! We've done this before ( on a Sunny Afternoon) and it was a great time! Once you embark on Star Island you can opt to take the NARRATED walking tour or go out on your own - the stop is for 1 hour. There is a snack bar, restrooms, picnic style tables, and gift shop. Not sure if the conference center/porch will be open to the public on this date. After the "1" hour is up we depart, heading back with (again narrated) tour of more of Portsmouth Harbor!
