What a fantastic local museum! I've been to museums all over the world and this is honestly one of my favorites! I'm amazed at how much is packed into this building. There are a few things for purchase at the entrance area. After that, there is an amazing exhibit for the bird lovers. An incredible amount of taxidermied birds with a giant interactive touchscreen to listen to all the different bird calls. There are other exhibits on fisheries and different stories about the island and it's inhabitants, such as the Dark Harbour Hermits. In the basement is an interactive exhibit for the rockhounds where different rock varieties can be viewed with a microscope. Heading outside at the rear of the museum is some great local art. Highly recommend this gem!

Excellent little museum. We’ll worth the entry price and then some. The displays were informative and I feel like I had the opportunity to learn A LOT about the island history and economy.

Lots of things to look at. Lots of history.. Kids had fun with the scavenger hunt. My daughter went through the place at least 3 times trying to find everything. They even have an old school house out back that was pretty cool to visit.

It was a "rainy day" activity, the day we went to the Grand Manan Museum. I wish a rainy day to everyone that visits Grand Manan now, if that's what it takes! Well worth the visit, rain or shine!

A must go. Surprisingly comprehensive, especially geology and wildlife: the bird supply was amazing. Wanted to spend more time than we had, we didn’t get a chance to see outside and the school behind.

A small local museum that has a few great displays that really show the history of the island. They definitely make good use of the space and pack in great items to tell their story. The schoolhouse out back was closed and there was a room for presentations that seemed to be not in use as much as in the past due to COVID-19. Overall a nice stop on the island to learn a little about their past ??
