When you walk into the museum’s main hangar and see the aircraft you’ll know what I mean. What a display! There is over 100 years of aviation history to explore and I think you’ll love every minute of it! Whether you are an aviation enthusiast or historian; a child seeking to enjoy the day out with mum and dad…. or simply a parent attempting to entertain the kids, this museum is for you.
As we entered the museum it was like stepping back in time. We were staring at a large ketch from the 1800’s and hearing all the sounds of the daily action in the port. Seagulls squawked, bells tinkered, and sailors called back and forth to each other….. There truly is a wealth of information at this museum. I would not hesitate to recommend the South Australian Maritime Museum, it was really a lot of fun as well as very interesting. There is a lot of Port Adelaide’s, and in fact South Australia’s, history packed within these galleries!
