It was closed during hours we expected the museum to be open and the building is for sale. We did not look for a phone number so we are not sure if the hours are wrong or this musueum has closed.

A museum completely dedicated to the the amazing recovery of ocean treasures. The men who conduct the dangerous snd complicated operations are often there to share their incredible adventures. Countless examples of coins, pottery, cannons, and video examples of the actual recovery ship! A most exciting place for adults and children! No fee required but well deserved donations accepted. Worth it!
