Maritime Centre

A lovely pier-length attraction aimed at anyone with more than a passing interest in salty history, this folksy facility is lined with intricate models, seafaring displays and usually at least one or two locals working on some kind of boat-building or repairing project. It's all wonderfully sprawling and random.
