Board Replica Ships and Toss Tea in Boston
Board replica ships and toss tea into the harbor with costumed interpreters on Fort Point Channel.
⚓ Harbor History, Hands-On
Boston history lands differently when the setting is a working waterfront. At Boston Tea Party Ships and Museum, guided tours move through Griffin Wharf, Fort Point Channel, the East Meeting House, museum galleries, and the Minuteman Theatre. Costumed interpreters lead the story, then bring the group aboard the restored 18th century replica ships Beaver and Eleanor.
The harbor tea toss is the moment to plan around, and the experience ends with tea thrown into the water. The onsite tea room looks over the harbor with teas, fresh scones, and cookies for a quieter finish. The museum runs daily from 10 am to 5 pm at 306 Congress St. Buy ahead when the day is fixed, tickets are nonrefundable. Leave room for a slow look around the waterfront. This is an easy pick for families, history fans, and anyone who wants a Boston afternoon with a little theater.
