About the event

These walking tours will showcase the "Summer Cottages" of our early families of the island.  Hear the stories of their lives that brought them to LBI and the impacts of their contributions to the growth of Beach Haven and beyond.  From early days of those who came to hunt and fish, to those who started the first hotels and the families that built up the area now known as Beach Haven.

 

The guided walking tours of Beach Haven's Historic District are divided into two options:  

The Tuesday tour visits the northern Historic District

The Friday tour visits the southern Historic District.


The Tours of the Historic District leaves the Museum every Friday at 10:00am (weather permitting) and take about 1.5 hours to complete. Both tours include the restored Fisherman's Cottage.
