While walking the wharf, we stumbled upon this museum and decided to take the tour. I was amazed at how nice this museum is and it is a Rig turned into museum. Great learning experience and very informative.

Second trip to this museum was just as interesting as the first. Informative displays and great views of the channel. About two hours of sights to explore. Parking is conveniently located but expensive. Take your parking ticket with you, we ate at Fisherman's Wharf afterwards- they would validate a couple hours of parking.

The exhibits here are very well done. There is a 15 minute movie and several interactive stations. We spent about 2 hours touring the museum. Well worth the cost.

The we loved visiting the Rig and looking out at the cruise ships from the top! There is alot of information to be learned and things to touch and see.

Lots of fun and a great way to find out how oil was made and how we find it and bring it back to the surface. The rig is a old jack up one but the information is bang up to date. Well worth a visit.(excuse the pun). If you put the details in you satnav it takes you to... More

The models... More

This was probably the most interesting museum I've ever been in. You leave with a much greater understanding of what is involved in bringing oil to us all. Also, you get a great view of the Harbor from the platforms.

We travel often and go to local museums wherever we go. This is an unusual opportunity. We all learned a lot about what is involved in offshore drilling and the life of the employees. Although they have interactive displays, this is a museum for people like us who are patient with detailed museums. There is also a feel of promoting... More
