Channel Islands Maritime Museum

Intricately handcrafted small-scale replicas of the handsomest ships the world over, beautiful paintings of life at sea - some which are centuries old - are on display at this museum. The humble appearance of the building belies the fact that it has some world-class art, including a 1622 painting by Dutch artist, Adam Willaerts. Other exhibits describe the history of seafaring, whaling, navigating, and the surrounding area. Check the website for special events and exhibitions.
