Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic
The Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic operates seasonally from mid May through mid October and is located in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. The Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic commemorates the fishing heritage of the Atlantic coast of Canada. Housed in brightly painted red buildings, with floating vessels at wharfside, the Museum offers a host of attractions, a maritime gift shop and restaurant.
Retired fishermen and experienced Heritage Interpreters accentuate the experience of visiting the Museum. Entertaining activities and demonstrations take place daily throughout mid-May to mid-October (Seasonal Business).
The Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic is operated by the volunteer Board of Directors of the Lunenburg Marine Museum Society, for the Nova Scotia Museum.
