The Boston Tea Party took place in Boston Harbor. The whole event was planned by "The Sons of Liberty" which was a group in Boston made up of some of the most famous patriots in the revolution. "The Sons of Liberty" and other patriots dressed up as Native Americans and dumped all of Britain's high-taxed tea into the harbor. FUN FACTS: The captain of the ship gave the keys to the patriots as long as they cleaned up the ship afterwerds.

The colonists were outraged when the British taxed the colonists (after the French Indian War) crazy amounts. The British had a large tax on the colonists favorite drink, tea. So the colonists dumped a ton of tea off a British ship in Boston Harbor to make the point that they did not want to be taxed so heavily.
The Boston locals boarded the ship and threw the crates of tea leaves it was carrying into the harbor.
The colonists because they did not want to pay for the British's taxes so they planned to dress and Indians and go on the British's ship and decided to dump all of the tea into the Harbor.
AnswerAmerican colonists were tired of being told what to do by the British and having no say in their own actions. This particular instance had to do with paying the tea tax the British had imposed. The colonists dressed up as Native Americans that night and loaded a ship throwing tea overboard as a protest into the Boston Harbor.

Paul Revere did not dump the tea into the Boston Harbor. A group of colonists boarded a ship on the night of December 16, 1773 and working quickly dumped valuable tea into the bay. This is known as the Boston Tea Party.
I believe you are referring to the Boston Tea Party, where some colonists dressed up as Indians boarded a British ship in Boston, MA harbor and threw the tea overboard into the water to protest the tea tax.
The Boston Tea Party! The Boston tea Party is not a tea party that we are used to! King George the Third was putting taxes on tea and the colonists didn't want it. The Sons of Liberty dressed as Native Americans and climbed aboard a ship delivering tea at the dead of night. They threw tea into the Boston Harbor! This is the famous Boston Tea Party!
