Isle of Shoals Historic Site
📍 Portsmouth, New Hampshire
“You step onto the island, the salty air fills your lungs, and the distant sound of waves greets you. As you walk past the old buildings, a lingering sense of history and defiance surrounds you.”
Just off the coast and reachable by a short ferry ride, this secluded cluster of islands once served as a hub for abolitionist gatherings in the 1800s. Today, you’ll discover historic buildings and nature trails while learning about its role in the underground freedom movement. The feel of the sea air amid the stories of resilience is captivating!
