A
Musée Maritime
Moored at Bassin à Flot are the meteorological research ship France 1, a chalutier (fishing boat) and a tug, which together make up the Musée Maritime. If you think your job is tough, just wait until you see what the crew on these sorts of boats have to put up with on the average working day.

Museu del Port
Down by the waterfront, this curious museum is housed in a dockside shed. There’s not a lot to it; there are some displays tracing the history of the port from Roman times (in Catalan and Castilian only), a few model boats and one or two other seafaring items, but it will keep the children happy for a while.

Musée International du Long Cours Cap-Hornier
Housed in the 14th-century Tour Solidor, this museum presents the life of the hardy sailors who followed the dangerous Cape Horn route around the southern tip of South America. It also offers superb views from the top of the tower.
