Located on the waterfront in Sturgeon Bay, this maritime museum explores the region's long shipping and fishing history and makes for an educational rainy-day activity. Children will enjoy a 40-minute guided tour of the 'John Purves,' a restored Great Lakes tugboat from 1919. Book ahead for the tugboat tour as the number of guides is limited.
