History
Conveniently located at the southern fork of Long island on Noyock Bay, about 100 miles east of Manhattan, this historical village is home to a wealth of landmark buildings and architectural treasures. A walk through the winding streets lined with trees and inviting homes of its early settlers and wealthy businessmen is the best way to explore the rich history of the place. You will find the bustling sidewalk shops, the quaint bookstores and the picturesque streets teeming with eager tourists. You can also rent a bike and explore the gorgeous countryside.
‘The Sag Harbor Whaling Museum’, is reminiscent of the days when the place was a bustling whaling port. View the outstanding collection of 18th and 19th Century whaling exhibits, paintings, scrimshaws, whaler ship models and other local artifacts. Sag Harbor is also home to the nation's first Customs House with its 18th-century maps and furnishings and the Old Whaler's Church.
