More than just a Lighthouse Tour with Captain Donald Steele

IMG_3650Harbor Tours provides a tour of six Lighthouse tour on Cape Ann, (Ten Pound Island, Eastern Point, Straitsmouth, Thacher and Annisquam Lighthouses). The tour is far more; it is narrated by Captain Donald Steele; who gives the history of Cape Ann and the many points of interest; you seethe many islands along the coast line, local and private beaches, and some celebrities’ homes along the shore. As a Gloucester native he tells stories of the many storms, that occurred along the rough coast line of Cape Ann.

The tour is a must for locals and Gloucester visitors. In the slideshow you will see the many delighted faces of people on the tour that I went on this past weekend.

Still blowing. Added the skis to get some perspective but it doen’t work. Those waves are really big. Straitsmouth Lighthouse in the middle somewhere. Into the wind was a beotch. Spread my wings to come back and almost blew past my house.sandybay
