Port Victoria Maritime Museum, Maritime museum in Port Victoria, Australia
The museum occupies a restored cargo shed from 1877, displaying maritime artifacts, photographs, and documents chronicling the region's seafaring heritage.
From 1879 to 1949, Port Victoria served as a major grain shipping port, with sailing vessels transporting cargo through Cape Horn to European markets.
The First Encounters Display explores the Narungga Indigenous people's traditions and their connections to the Spencer Gulf maritime activities.
The museum provides informative leaflets about Port Victoria's coastal walks, geological features, and historical points along the waterfront.
The museum contains artifacts from multiple shipwrecks near Wardang Island, including an old diving suit used for underwater repairs and assessments.
