Tourism

As you stroll the streets of Historic Yorktown, you’re walking in the footsteps of General George Washington who led the Continental Army and allied French forces to victory in the decisive battle of the American Revolution in 1781. Immerse yourself in 300 years of history as you listen to The Fifes and Drums of York Town and visit museums, monuments, battlefields and historic homes. This now peaceful riverside village offers quaint shops, unique galleries, fine dining, entertainment and a relaxing beach. Stay overnight in accommodations with a river view or nestled in the picturesque village. End your day with a sunset sail on the Schooner Alliance.
