INSPIRATION WHARF

F. Scott Fitzgerald referred to it as the "courtesy bay" in The Great Gatsby and indeed, he used Manhasset Bay as the setting for his novel published in 1925. For it was in 1922 - 23 that he and Zelda rented a home in Great Neck and socialized with the rich, the famous and not-so-famous folks who populated Great Neck, Kensington, Kings Point (West Egg) and Sands Point, Port Washington, Manhasset (East Egg). Get out on the water via this very special 90-minute boat ride narrated by Eleanor "Ellie" Cox-Nihill since 2008.
This last tour of the 2024 season takes place on Sunday, Sept 22 at 4 PM.
Bring whatever you'd like to eat or drink and dress for comfort. Should weather become an issue, the captain will cancel and you will receive a full refund. Should you need to cancel for any reason at all, you may do so and receive a refund until 6 pm the day before the tour.
Cruise the setting which is home to several yacht clubs... we’ll delve deep into 1920s and 1930s New York: home to the flapper, the speakeasy, and the belief that anything goes.
