We happily browsed here for an hour or so, enjoying learning about the history of the area. The channel display was an eye opener - who knew that the Yarra ran all the way out to sea all those many years ago! Seeing the maps and models really brought the whole area to life for us. The tiny fisherman's cottage was lovely too. The staff were friendly and helpful and made our visit very special with their stories of local life in times past.

Very helpful staff (Sue) and a very tidy museum. Large artefact collection from local wrecks, very informative display on the Port Pilots. Well preserved lifeboat. Very interesting and informative on the Heads history

This museum is wonderful. The rich maritime history of this area is fascinating. Kept myself and my partner reading, exploring & learning for several hours. The staff were very helpful and more than happy to discuss the exhibits. Entry fee is very reasonable $7p/p

Its been there for years, and I've never visited the [place, despite my yachting interest and activities. But if you have an hour or two with nothing to do in Queenscliff, the Maritime Museum is definitely worth a visit. It's located adjoining the Queenscliff (Sometimes spelt Queenscliffe)harbour and ferry terminal.Inside there are various displays illustrating the history of the lifeboat rescue craft, and an actual lifeboat. It also has displays illustrating the work of the pilots who regularly go out to guide ships into and out of Port Phillip Bay. Just inside the entrance is a scale model of The Rip, the geographically and hydrologically fascinating (and often dangerous) entrance to Port Philip Bay. There are all sorts of other collections related to the sea, including an early fisherman's cottage.Really worth a visit.

Was a good day out but not overly exciting for older kids. Maybe some attractions during the school holidays to get the kids more interested would be good. Still enjoyed our day there but not going back in a hurry.

We spent a good hour or so checking out the great exhibits in what is in fact a relatively small exhibition area. Irrespective there is a lot to see and learn, what's more, if yo don't mind getting your hands wet a centrally positioned open display containing all sorts of things from live crabs to starfish and a whole lot more is there for you to touch.Making it even more enticing is an attendant (range perhaps) who is both incredibly knowledgeable and extremely likeable. Well worth the $8 (I think) per head.

Queenscliff is one of my favourite towns in Australia and have been here many times. It's close enough to Melbourne and also good to catch the ferry in either direction to or from Portsea.As such it has a prime bayside location and has an enormous history with the old wealth from Melbourne and the western graziers.So it is a town of more than beautiful historical old buildings - there is a maritime history with the town and this museum shows it well.It's an interesting museum, small but interesting enough to show the balances of the history of the area.Not sure if it would be my first pick of a tourist attraction but each time I come, I look for something different to interest me.

The museum documents the history of the busy Queenscliff maritime area from the ship wrecks, the fishing industry, the old paddle steamer tourist boats and the pilot service for Port Phillip. Well worth a visit to this volunteer run museum.

By chance we visited the Maritime Museum and were really surprised and delighted with the quality and the vastness of the displays. Very well presented and some good interactive displays.
