Save the Harbor/Save the Bay is hosting a free sunset cruise to Boston Light on the evening of Monday October 1st!
While on board, author Eric Jay Dolin will lead a wheelhouse narration based on his best selling book “Brilliant Beacons: A History of the American Lighthouse” and Save the Harbor staff will lead the crowd in songs and stories of the sea.
Copies of “Brilliant Beacons” will be available for sale on board, which you can have signed by the author, along with his brand new book, “Black Flags, Blue Waters: The Epic History of America's Most Notorious Pirates.” Set against the backdrop of the Age of Exploration, Black Flags, Blue Waters reveals the dramatic and surprising history of American piracy’s “Golden Age”—spanning the late 1600s through the early 1700s—when lawless pirates plied the coastal waters of North America and beyond.

About Save the Harbor/Save the Bay
Save the Harbor/Save the Bay is a non-profit, public interest harbor advocacy organization whose mission is to restore and protect Boston Harbor, Massachusetts Bay, and the marine environment and share them with the public for all to enjoy. This year their free Youth Environmental Education programs will connect more than 30,000 underserved youth, teens and families to Boston Harbor and the Boston Harbor Islands National and State Park.
For more information about Save the Harbor/Save the Bay and the work they do to restore, protect and share Boston Harbor, the Boston Harbor Islands and our region's public beaches from Nahant to Nantasket, visit their website at www.savetheharbor.org, their blog "Sea, Sand & Sky" at blog.savetheharbor.org, or follow on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
