Mystic Seaport is the largest and most comprehensive maritime museum in North America. Here you can sail or row exact replicas of our traditional wooden boats, cruise in our antique steamboat, participate in formal classes, ride a horse-drawn carriage, star gaze in our 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. A 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.
