Learn more about New Bedford

Dive into America's whaling past at the New Bedford Whaling Museum, where massive whale skeletons and scrimshaw artifacts tell tales of maritime glory. Once the 'richest city in the world' thanks to whale oil, this historic port now offers harbor tours showcasing centuries-old lighthouses. The Whaling National Historic Park preserves the seafaring heritage that inspired Melville's 'Moby-Dick.' Frederick Douglass once found refuge here among fellow abolitionists. Today's working waterfront boasts America's most valuable fishing fleet, with fresh seafood practically jumping onto plates. For a change of pace, visit the Art Museum or catch a performance at the Zeiterion Theatre. Buttonwood Park Zoo offers family-friendly encounters with creatures considerably more docile than Moby Dick.

Green Harbor Waterfront Lodging

Green Harbor Waterfront Lodging

8/10 Good
"Basic hotel room, clean but bring yr own water. Has a refrigerator that was cold on arrival as was the room. Good AC in my room but my niece’s wasn’t as good & had a mildew smell. I was on lake view -1st floor level which was fine but I could hear people above walking around until @ 11 pm. My niece was on upper level but had to deal with people’s car lights as that was the parking area. Decent place overall. Didn’t use the pool or other amenities."

"The room and bathroom were clean. The breakfast was not really worth eating. Went out to breakfast. Didn’t use the pool but looked liked it was well maintained. The front desk person (I didn’t get her name) went above and beyond to get me into a room a few hours earlier than check in time."
