What’s happening at @sa_maritime_museum

  • Merchant Navy Day in Port Adelaide.
  • Party like it’s 1869. Did you know our lighthouse turned 150 this year? We love the street art nearby from Wonderwalls 2017 telling its story in a creative way!
  • Celebrate Father’s Day with a trip to the South Australian Maritime Museum. Fathers and carers accompanied by a paying visitor this Father’s Day on Sunday 1 September will be admitted to the Museums free of charge. At the South Australian Maritime Museum, you can scramble over a life sized ketch and imagine the days of sail. Then marvel at sailors’ souvenirs and maritime crafts from Australia’s oldest nautical collection started at the Port in 1872. Also be sure to visit the fascinating exhibition Messing about in Boats, a history of sail in Port Adelaide. Take a stroll around the streets of Port Adelaide and imagine a nineteenth-century port with its grand customs house, telegraph office, shipping offices, chandlery and the Maritime Museum’s bond stores, lighthouse and steam tug Yelta. While in Port Adelaide why not visit the Clipper Ship City of Adelaide and check out the Tall Ship Friends of the One And All Sailing Ship Inc. If trains and airplanes take your fancy go to the National Railway Museum, Port Adelaide and the South Australian Aviation Museum. Get a pass to all three museums and save 25% of your admission.
