Vancouver Maritime Museum, Maritime museum in Vanier Park, Vancouver, Canada
The Vancouver Maritime Museum exhibits model ships, navigational instruments, and maritime artifacts across multiple galleries dedicated to Pacific Northwest nautical history.
The museum opened in 1959 during Vancouver's centennial celebrations and houses the St. Roch vessel, which completed the Northwest Passage navigation in both directions.
The Children's Maritime Discovery Centre within the museum educates young visitors about marine traditions through interactive displays and hands-on learning experiences.
