Penobscot Marine Museum

This place is captivating. An incredible amount of very interesting exhibits over a surprisingly large area, too. You can easily spend a few hours taking it all in. Tip: Be sure to ask the staff why the museum sits where it does.

Went for the tour and it was NOT worth the $40 my mom and I paid .we were not allowed into .the buildings so all we got to see is the outside and 2 sets of ca or and sailboats. Wish they would have let us know that due to the covid budinga including the museum was off limits. Drove 2 hours to see it. What a disappointment

Awesome! Very informative staff. Unique museum made up of several buildings, each featuring something different. We saw living quarters, an exhibit of nautical paintings, and great examples of small boats of varied purpose & design. The camera obscura was so cool!

If you are a lover of maritime history or you have a question about something maritime or maybe you love photographs you need to take the time and visit.

Very well done. Knowledgeable people working there. Very authentic. Loved the boats & displays.
