Imagine life on a ship by boarding one of our four national historic landmark vessels: the 1841 whaleship, Charles W. Morgan; the 1866 Noank smack, Emma C. Berry; the 1908 steamboat Sabino; and the 1921 fishing schooner, L. A. Dunton.
Explore your nautical interests by playing a 19th-century game, designing and building your own toy boat, or navigating the stars at the Treworgy Planetarium. Visit the Funk Children’s Museum, Home Port activity center, Discovery Barn, Ships Playscape, and the Boathouse for daily family fun.
Navigate the waterfront with a river cruise on the historic vessel, Sabino, built in 1908. Sail aboard the captained Crosby catboat Breck Marshall, or be your own captain on a rowboat, sailboat, or pedal boat from the Museum’s Boathouse.
Witness traditional shipbuilding techniques as skilled shipwrights maintain historic wooden vessels. The Henry B. du Pont Preservation Shipyard was the first shipyard built specifically for preservation in the United States, and possibly the world, marking a new era in maritime preservation.
Reveal your personal connection to the sea through our specially curated exhibitions that delve into ocean exploration, maritime innovation, recreation, art, artifacts, and more.
Learn about maritime trades that supported life at sea and on land in the 19th century. Museum interpreters demonstrate skills in the cooperage, shipsmith, print shop, shipcarver shop, and more in the re-created seaport village.
