Description

Emphasizing hands-on, experience-based activities, traveler extraordinaire Daniel Seddiqui guides travelers on an immersive journey through New England's nautical past and present Throughout its history, New England and its culture have been indelibly marked by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. In the latest edition of the Immersive Travel Guide series, Seddiqui-dubbed "the Most Traveled Person in America"-explores this connection between the region and the water. Leading readers on an experience-based travel journey through New England that focuses on the region's nautical past and present, Seddiqui presents a curated journey with stops in Wells and Portland in Maine; Portsmouth, New Hampshire; Gloucester, Boston, Plymouth, Hyannis and Provincetown, Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, and Wareham in Massachusetts; Newport, Rhode Island; and Mystic and Greenwich in Connecticut. The itinerary includes fun activities-from fishing excursions to lessons in sailing and rowing-that allow travelers to experience firsthand New England's deep connection to the water; hands-on opportunities to learn skills such as ship repair and how to cook lobster and clam chowder; up-close guidance from skilled makers of nautical-themed art and crafts such as Nantucket baskets, sea glass and scrimshaw art, and knotwork; interviews with locals who provide insight into the region and its nautical traditions; and information on lodging and other attractions that travelers should be sure to check out along the way. Get ready, get set, get nautical in New England!
