Mission Statement

To preserve and share Florida's maritime heritage.

Description

Come aboard as we undertake a voyage in time and tradition.

Here you will find, displayed for your delight, pieces of the almost forgotten past. At the Florida Maritime Museum you will find the Banks Shell collection, ship models, historic boats, and a butterfly garden. Families and community members will have the opportunity to take classes and learn traditional skills.
