nantucket shipwreck & lifesaving museum印象
-
museum has excellent organizational layout and volunteer tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Displays give a comprehensive historical timeline.

We did this museum twice, once by ourselves, then went back for a guided tour which was very informative. The men that were lifesavers(precourser to the Coast Guard) were rugged, selfless, extremely tough individuals. I personally came away thinking just how far we have come from where these men were in our present day America...really quite sad actually.

Nice little museum, friendly workers and interesting items.....amazing how many wrecks were off of Nantucket! My son who was 9 was a bit bored since many of the stories were posted on the wall and had to be read....he was not interested in reading!

we got a big guided tour and watched four short films on shipwrecks and heroic lifesaving events this museum is very nice

This museum is out of town, but it is worth the trip. It is really small and the volunteers give guided tours, which was great. Cool swings and a rope climbing wall outside. Beautiful setting with picnic tables. Nice gift shop too.

This is a wonderful little museum that captures much of the historic sailing history and shipwrecks around the island. It's a great place to take children. We passed it many times before actually visiting and I am very happy we did. It's very well done great displays, nice little gift shop.

This is a very interesting and informative museum which gives you some insight into life on Nantucket

My wife and I rode bikes to this museum--recommend it and then on to Sankaty lighthouse and Siasconset. You will no tbeleive the number of nearby shipwrecks off nantucket--hence the need for lifesaving. Going out to sea in a storm in the little boats on display gives me the chills. It may help to enjoy this place if you are a sailor or a history enthusiast.

We enjoyed a guided tour of the Nantucket Shipwreck and Lifesaving Museum on our last full day on the island, and were rewarded with a unique trip back into history as interpreted by an excellent and well-prepared docent. Our tour made us aware of Nantucket's vital role in the development of today's US Coast Guard and the heroic actions of relatively small crews of dedicated boatsmen who braved the worst of N'orEasters to save lives that otherwise would have been lost due to scores of shipwrecks, including the terrific damage that was wrought by the "No Name Storm" in 1991 on which "The Perfect Storm" was based. The museum itself is easy to navigate,with many fascinating exhibits and real-life rescue boats, life lines, and unique artwork, but our learned guide made it an experience we will not forget.

The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Very interesting to learn a bit more about the Whaling history of Nantucket. Beautiful area outside with lifebelt swings for kids and benches by a lovely pond.
