New London, Connecticut, USA

What were the largest whaling ports in the country in the mid-19th century? New Bedford, Nantucket, and New London, ranked by number of voyages. That's why you see one whale after another (or just their tails) all over New London. Today, the ships on the waterfront are likely to be ferries: to Long Island, to Block Island, and to Fishers Island. [2021]
