Herreshoff Marine Museum

Great place to stop and visit the great history of the America's Cup! You are able to board some old very detailed wooden sailing boats. If you have an hour to kill in Bristol use it here!

As a lifelong Bristolian, who had not been til their fabulous 2023 Christmas Market... I'm so impressed. It's a place for all ages to better understand our seaside roots. Thank you for all you offer to the community year round!

For those seeking knowledge and history in regards one of America's finest wooden boat builders, this museum is tops. I learned a great deal about the Herreshoff family and how they began building wooden boats and steam engines. The displays are impressive, to say the least, and there are many preserved boats to examine up close. The staff is super friendly and they obviously love their work. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful.
