Cruise ship visitors arrive
Cruise ship visitors arrive at Axel Stenross Maritime Museum a number of ways. Some take the opportunity to stretch their legs and enjoy the 20-30 minute walk along the Parnkalla Trail. This gives a great view of Boston Bay and passes the site of the First Landing of European settlers in the Port. Some share an economical taxi ride from the foreshore – easy to get and only a 5 minute ride to the Museum. Some have booked on a tour such as EP Bus Charters “Seafood Story” which visits the Axel Stenross Maritime Museum along with other sites.
