Door County Maritime Museum, Sturgeon Bay

I've been wanting to check this museum out since seeing it on one of the Door County Trolley Tours a couple years ago. We finally made a Sturgeon Bay trip happen and we stopped in finally. It is a very cool thing to do for $30. My wife and I went and had a very educational time. There is so much that I didn't know about this area and Wisconsin history as a whole. The observation tower is really cool and you can see for miles!! The ability to see all the Marina's and boats going up and down the waterways is neat. I've been into boats and Maritime things since I was a kid. Seeing the history of Sturgeon Bay and its boating history was really cool. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone interested in history, boats, maritime history, and it's good for families and kids.

This place is amazing!!! Very clean, organized, and maintained. There is so much to do exploring and it has a neverending learning environment about Maritime ships. There are ten floors, each one unique to visit. All the floors are accessible by elevator and stairs to find something new and entertaining for all ages. Hands on interactive games and stimulation for a positive learning experience. A little pricey but it is worth every penny spent. Wheel chair and disability accessible. Very child friendly with many hands on interactive games to explore with the family. The front desk staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. They took the time to answer any and all questions as needed. This business is open year round, as the ship tour is only seasonal open in May through the summer months only. Overall a great time spent here, two thumbs up and you will not be disappointed. Definitely coming back to explore again as there was so much to do and see, not all was done in a day.
