Learn about the beginnings of the U. S. Coast Guard in the late 1700s, see photographs of the early Life Saving Stations and lighthouses, and hear of the role of Yankee Homecoming in bringing national attention to Newburyport as the birthplace of the Coast Guard. In 2011, Newburyport was designated by the U.S. Congress as a Coast Guard City, one of only sixteen in the United States.
