Port Albert Maritime Museum

There could be few places better credentialed to house a first-class maritime museum than Port Albert. From Gunaikurnai origins, the arrival of European settlers in 1841 establishing a port servicing pastoralists and later the Gippsland goldfields, the rise and fall of the local fishing industry, right up to the OMEGA satellite navigation station at Woodside and present-day Bass Strait oil exploration, all are on display at the museum.
