Delmarva's Maritime past of shipwrecks and piracy is vividly brought back to life here at DiscoverSea Museum. The museum features an ever- changing "edutainment" exhibit. It houses one of the most comprehensive collections of shipwreck artifacts on the Delmarva Peninsula. There are thousands of items on display ranging from gold and Silver bars, coins, weapons, china and items used aboard early day sailing ships. The seashells, marine life tanks and our working lab will help to educate guests of all ages about the aspects of treasures from our ocean's depths.
DiscoverSea Shipwreck Museum is an ever-changing exhibit that expands and diversifies with the acquisitions of new artifacts as they are recovered. Our collection of shipwreck and recovered artifacts is one of the largest in the Mid-Atlantic and contains shipwreck artifacts both regional and worldwide.
Through your DiscoverSea Shipwreck Museum visit, you will travel through a hands-on experience, which will enable you to shake hands with history.
Admission is free.

This place is the true definition of a hidden gem. It may not be as big as most museums but it sure punches above it wait in material on exhibition and wealth of information available. By wealth of information, I just don't mean what's written about the objects on exhibition but rather I am referring to the owner Dale who if you are lucky to have him around when you visit is a treasure trove of information. He is worth the price of admission. I highly recommend this place.

The museum was awesome! They have pirate treasure and weapons. The kids loved it and we used it as an educational stop for our family vacation. The ladies running the shop were so sweet to my girls also! No cost to enter and the shop had some great incense to choose from!

Truly fascinating stuff, even if you aren’t a history nerd. Was incredibly welcoming, in the sense that ANY questions I had were graciously answered by this gentleman running the show in a truly humble manner. I believe you could spend 10 minutes in a rush or 2 hours during a rainy day here easily. Thanks for the incredible hospitality!
