The New Zealand Maritime Museum is the place where the stories of people and the sea are preserved, shared and explored with our visitors.
The museum houses one of the nation’s most important heritage collections, which covers the breadth of our relationship with the sea; from the Great Pacific Migration a thousand years ago to the cutting edge of modern technology and design used in America’s Cup and modern yachting.
Whether you are a lifelong yachtie or someone who has never before set foot on a boat, you will find relevance and personal connections to the stories and taonga of the New Zealand Maritime Museum.
Situated in Auckland’s vibrant Viaduct Basin on the Waitematā Harbour, the Museum is open every day of the year except for Christmas Day. (from the museums web site - link www.maritimemu... )
Definitely on my highly recommended list and like the War Memorial Museum free to Auckland citizens - your museum card works here) .
The museum is packed with exhibits and really interesting video documentaries including at least two on Sir Peter Blake (one of my personal Kiwi hero's).
Located very close to the downtown ferry terminal and the Britomart Train Station. Set aside at least a couple of hours to do justice to the museum, there is a decent little cafe in the building if you need a break. 😀
