Maine Maritime Museum
Maine Maritime Museum
History

Working shipyard museum in Bath covering wooden and iron shipbuilding history — combines maritime history with naval architecture and engineering.

What families say
Families tend to spend a full day here, combining the main exhibits with a guided walking tour and boat cruise (around $45, about an hour), so plan accordingly. Kids seem drawn to the Chris Van Dusen exhibit and the woodshop, while parents appreciate the deep dive into Maine's shipbuilding history, including the Snow Squall clipper exhibit. One note: some outdoor buildings may close during extreme heat, so check conditions if visiting in summer.
