Mission

The mission of the Maritime Museum of San Diego is to serve as the community memory of our seafaring experience by collecting, preserving, and presenting our rich maritime heritage and historic connections with the Pacific world.

About

In 2019 the Maritime Museum welcomed approximately 120,000 visitors through the gate, and served approximately 16,000 school children, adults and families. Museum activities take place aboard seven historic vessels (the flagship is the 1863 bark Star of India, the world's oldest active sailing ship). Maritime history is interpreted through: 1)permanent and temporary exhibits; 2)public programs (e.g.,Family Days with nautical activities for adults and children, half-day tall ship sailings, sea chantey concerts, members' nights, and travel programs); 3)publications (peer-reviewed journal of maritime history, quarterly newsletter); and 4)education programs (science of seafaring workshops, environmental education on the bay, day and overnight living history programs, sail training for at risk youth, docent-led tours).
