Take a Walk Down to the Harbor With Us

Cold Spring Harbor offers a charming view as a quintessential 19th century microcosmic whaling village. 

We invite both locals and visitors from afar to travel back in time to the Whaling Era and stroll down Cold Spring Harbor’s Historic Main Street in our educator-led, themed walking tours. Tours are offered Spring & Fall (registration below). 

• Meet at the Museum's gallery. You may use free street parking by the museum (279 Main Street), or use the free Main Street parking lot a 5-minute walk away (located 90-126 Main Street, next to the Cold Spring Harbor Post Office.) If you park by the lot, your return walk back to the museum will be shorter. 
• ​Wear comfortable walking shoes. Tour lasts approximately 45 min-1hour.
• Bring an umbrella in case of light rain.

Tours are held in light rain or shine. In the event of inclement weather, participants will enjoy a museum tour and a digital presentation of the walking tour. Tickets are nonrefundable.
