Wonderful experience. Informative staff at all of the exhibits. Ships to tour and you get a real feel for life during that time. We took a ride share here, so don’t know about parking. Plenty of places to sit and a few restaurants inside the exhibit.

What a neat way to explore the history of New England. This is an immersive experience - climbing onto the boats and peeking under the decks! So many bits of the sailing industry to learn about in the individual shops. Each interpretive worker was full of great information and made two hours here pass in a flash.
