About
The museum runs changing exhibits alongside its core collection. A current exhibit, Getting Tiddley, takes a look at a particular corner of maritime life and culture, and it is one of several ways the museum keeps its story fresh for repeat visitors.
Programs round out the experience, with talks and activities for adults, families and school groups that bring maritime history to a wide audience.
The museum is open Tuesday to Saturday from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm. Admission is $10 for adults, $8 for seniors and students, and $5 for youth. On Fridays the museum offers pay-what-you-can admission, which makes it easy for anyone to visit regardless of budget.
Its downtown location puts it within walking distance of the Inner Harbour, the waterfront and many of Victoria's other attractions, so it fits neatly into a day of exploring the city on foot. For anyone curious about how the ocean has shaped British Columbia, it is well worth a stop.
