Quaco Museum
About This Museum
People find their way to our little museum for all sorts of reasons—some are chasing a specific ancestor, others are just curious about the lives etched into these old shipbuilding shores. Once inside, you don't just read dates on a plaque; you feel the salt spray and hear the creak of timber. It’s the kind of place that makes you look at our quiet coves and that famous covered bridge with a whole new understanding. Folks usually leave feeling like they've had a long, wonderful chat with the past itself.
Collection Highlights
The heart of the place is its deep connection to the Age of Sail, with incredible stories of local shipmasters and the vessels built right here. You'll find beautifully crafted ship models and evocative photographs that bring St. Martins' seafaring heyday to life.
Visitor Information
We're easy to find right on Main Street in St. Martins—look for the charming historic building. It's always best to check ahead for our seasonal hours, especially in the shoulder seasons.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a classic, unassuming Maritime building that feels as much a part of the village as the tides, it has the comfortable, weathered charm of a longtime local resident.
