Historic Crescent Beach Virtual Walking Tour

Crescent Beach was first settled by Walter Blackie in 1871 who purchased 150 acres of land in Crescent Beach for $50.00 from the Royal Engineers. By 1912, Crescent Beach was home to a boathouse, twelve homes, a hotel, a school and a pier. By 1930, a concentration of businesses catering to summer tourists began to line Beecher Street. Today, Crescent Beach is a desirable and popular summer destination for residents and tourists.
