Salem is not just for October! For a summer in Salem, follow our guide to this quaint New England town for a beautiful, educational and delicious experience. Remember to bring comfortable clothing during the summer. A great simple dress , comfy shoes and hat in hand is a must! Glor even had a chance to steer the ship as well as learn how to tie the many different sailor knots!
