This maritime museum occupies a wave-roofed building on the western shore of Darling Harbour and explores Australia's relationship with the sea. Its galleries cover navigation, immigration, naval history, sport and Indigenous connections to water. A fleet of vessels moored alongside can be boarded, including a retired destroyer, a submarine and a replica of James Cook's Endeavour. Interactive displays and touring exhibitions make it a popular family destination.
