Why go

Choose this museum when you want the harbour’s working history rather than another scenic waterfront walk. Exhibits inside the old commercial buildings connect the ships, merchants and everyday objects to the streets just outside, making it a useful first stop before exploring the old port.

  • Local shipping and trading exhibits
