Great place to spend an hour or 2 on a rainy day. The storyteller was very entertaining. The staff were very friendly and helpful, to the point of opening a loading door at the back of the museum, so we could take pictures of Bluenose II without getting our cameras all wet.

We are so glad you enjoyed your visit to the Fisheries Museum. You WERE lucky to catch Ocearch - an amazing project indeed! It is always nice to receive compliments about our staff from guests. And hearing that a 16 year old enjoyed his visit so much is wonderful. Thank you for taking the time to post your great review!
