Sign up for Save the Harbor's "Share the Harbor" fall cruise to Spectacle Island on Saturday October 20th with Boston Harbor Now, the Department of Conservation and Recreation and the National Park Service.
Visitors will have the opportunity to join Save the Harbor and Park staff for fishing and crabbing on the pier, kite flying on the North Drumlin, and tours of the island including a “Treasures of Spectacle Island” tour of Treasure Beach.

Please note that the Boston Harbor Islands National & State Park enforces a carry on, carry off policy: please bring a bag for your trash and dispose of it back on the boat.
