Description
Penzance Point with a look back into Great Harbor, Woods Hole and beyond. If planning a day trip, Woods Hole has it all of you enjoy dining, nightlife, views and WHOI, as well as the Steam Ship Authority, museum and local artisans.
Woods Hole was a whaling port in the early 1800s. In 1859, the village became home to the Pacific Guano Company, which produced fertilizer from guano imported from the islands of the Pacific Ocean. After the firm went bankrupt on the verge of the 20th century, the peninsula on which the factory was located was transformed into Penzance Point, where sprawling summer estates were developed for wealthy Bostonian's and New Yorkers.
