Just Informing our Guests……and readers Mystic Seaport will be open Thursday thru Sundays only November 30 thru March 27. That will enhance the visit as more exhibits and the village will be open during those days rather than only some things open in prior years! Demonstrations will also be open which is different from other winters. Also two FREE planetarium programs will be offered in the admission. A new hands on exhibit “Skills of a Sailor” to learn knot tying, using signal flags making bagggywrinkle (not sure what that is) and sining sea chantey songs. Hours will be 10am-4pm.
