    Jamestown National Historical Site is a part of Historic Jamestowne, site of the First Permanent English Colony in North America. The National Historic Site consists of 22.5 acres on the western end of Jamestown Island, which includes the original site of the 1607 fort and statehouse site of the late 17th century. On May 13, 1607, one hundred seven Englishmen arrived in three small ships and moored them to the trees on this island. The following day the English came ashore--never to leave. Jamestown Island is located in the Historic Triangle of Virginia. Jamestown is seven miles from Colonial Williamsburg down the Colonial Parkway
