Mystic Seaport is the largest and most comprehensive maritime museum in North America. Here you can sail or row exact replicas of traditional wooden boats, cruise in
their antique steamboat, participate in formal classes, ride a horse-drawn carriage, star gaze in
their planetarium, or spend the day climbing aboard ships or just meandering along beautiful riverfront gardens.
The range of activities takes place within a 40-acre property that
houses the Collections Research Center, graduate and undergraduate
campuses and more than one million artifacts, many of them the only
surviving examples of their kind. Their trained staff is stationed
throughout the magnificent 17-acre historic waterfront, including the
berthed ships, the exhibits of art and artifacts and the nearly 40
historic buildings
—
to answer questions, demonstrate traditional skills and share stories of
people who are long gone but can still tell us something new.
