This is one of those must-do-once-in-your-life historical sort of things. There are many old houses that are down by the water from the "olden fishing days" in the 1600s. There's quite a bit to see and learn, so it's worth doing. Even if you don't buy a ticket to go into the homes, it's a beautiful area to walk around.
