Absolutely wonderful experience. We went out with them for a sunset cruise on the Wilma Lee and the views were incredible. The crew was very kind, helpful and knowledgeable of the area. We went on a more rainy evening so we ended up having a “private” tour with just me and my husband on the boat with the crew, and they made the evening fun and memorable for us. Would highly recommend sailing with them!

Wow, now that I see they have free admission for the Museum, I want to come back next summer when Jumbo Crabs are in season at the Seafood Place around the corner.Issue today was that the place closes at 3, we got in at 315 exclusively to eat crabs after a day of birding at Jug Bay, and there are no exterior restrooms in the park. Park is a great place to take pictures, and a single dude could get away with sneaking a No. 1 somewhere if he were slick enough but ...... alas, I’m a married man, and COVID meant no restroom at the seafood place for the Mrs. If you are coming into Eastport in the late afternoon or evening with a lady in your party, be sure to make a pitstop at one of the strip malls on the drive in.In a pinch, you can make a deal at the Latitude and Longitude Boutique catty corner to the museum. Wife said that was a nice place, but a very pricey trade for a very Maritime souvenir and a toilet. She said they were friendly, and all I know is they were cool with me taking a mask-off break in the vacant lot outside as I cleared all my junk election emails :oD

Attended a wedding here. It was perfect. The food, service and the scenery were all outstanding.

Very nice place but dangerous for children. Not much parking either

Beautiful model ship collection from English builders from as far back as 1400s.

The museum itself is excellent and the Thomas Point Lighthouse tour is AWESOME!!

Great knowledge of the bay. The Wilma Lee was wonderfully restored.

Museum officially closed till April for renovation.. But still nice place to hangout

Lovely location for any event. We utilize the facility for our non-profit board meetings and have had a wonderful experience every time!Kitchen, bathroom, wifi, large screen TV, and ample seating/table space. Good amount of outdoor space as well should your event require an indoor/outdoor mixed space.

Absolutely gorgeous venue and amazing staff!

A really wonderful public space with a small historic informational Museum, and waterfront views, educational programs, and it is an amazing outdoor music venue.

Awesome place to catch crabs

This area of Annapolis is called East Port. We were doing a self guided tour using an app called Whereigo that a fellow Geocache had created as part of the 2018 Cache Across Maryland geocaching event. This tour took us where we had been but were not aware of its special community history.

Great place, newly renovated

Museum is still closed but, the piers and park are open dawn to dusk daily. Public fishing from piers

Great place. Love the fish tank with local species.

I loved the trip to the Thomas Point Shoals lighthouse. The docents were very informative and knowledgeable

Well certainly not what we were expecting, but nice if you are interested in the Trumpy family history and oyster harvesting. I think we thought it was going to be more like the US Naval Academys museum. Just know before you go that it’s focus is oysters. I will say the gentleman who greeted us was so sweet and he is a great painter.

AMAZINGGGG and ACCOMMODATING PLACE to hold a party at. We had our company party here and the space was absolutely beautiful and right on the water.Gorgeous and spacious! Staff and event coordinators are super easy and friendly to work with.We used BE MY GUEST from their catering list choices and Omg they were fantastic. They made hosting an event sooo relaxing. We did not stress one bit! I HIGHLY HIGHLYYYY recommend Be My Guest catering!!

We were in the area for the band festival with over 25 bands. So much fun. Really enjoyed our time there.

Very nice. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. History of the academy was very interesting.

Great trip to the Thomas Point Shoal LIGHTHOUSE. Friendly helpful staff, great displays of Chesapeake Bay marine life

Great fun. Summer concert series is a blastFood trucks, beer, wine, and music all on the water. What more do you need?

Nice place for short- time vacations.Wonderful Explanations of stuff.And most importantly, very friendly staff.

Lovely location for any event.

Neat small museum specializing in the history of the oyster industry on the Chesapeake Bay. The building is an old oyster canning factory. We had a wonderful docent who had great passion for his subject. Takes about two hours to see and read everything.

A wonderful little museum tucked into Eastport. A definite must see! Wonderful staff, docents and gorgeous views

Former Home to McNasby Seafood & Oyster Company, the museum has permanent and rotating exhibits and host many special events, including the summertime Tides & Tunes concerts as well as daily tours. The museum is host to a variety of Maritime exhibits including historic boats, scale model of Thomas Point Lighthouse, art gallery, fish tank, and the main focus Oyster harvesting and processing with a special exhibit of cannon used in the oyster wars. Volunteers such as myself are proud to give tours about the culture and economy of Eastport Annapolis and Chesapeake Bay Heritage.

Very nice museum and venue for events. I often attend their concert series on Thursday nights during the summer. Great view of the Chesapeake Bay. Easy to pull into by boat and enjoy the music on the water.

Went to a special event food and service was excellent. Definitely worth trying

Love this spot. So many things to see. On Thursdays theres live music. A lot of other event ago on here too!

Even on an Overcast Day,the viewnever ever gets old.Vixi Libet MoriarI have lived, and I shall die, freeYes I have and will.Save The Bay, please.️

Extremely friendly staff. I took a work group there and they couldn’t have been more accommodating. I would recommend having a wedding reception at this romantic spot!

Nice little museum. Very small but worth seeing! We went to an event here. They have a large room which is great for a small group gathering.

Friendly staff here. Told us some interesting stories about the ships back then. And its free.

A great local and often overlooked museum. The local flavor and knowledgeable staff are supported by a great location and rich history. Some have noted the opportunities for parties and wedding receptions as well. Many historical sites have included this in their work and the Maritime Museum have been very accommodating.

Very beautiful and interesting museum!

An incredible venue for a special celebration. Any other place wouldnt have provided the experience we had for our wedding.

The gentleman working here on the day we went was amazing. He spent so much time talking to us about the ecology of the bay and the history of the area.

Always a pleasure to visit. Beautiful museum by the water.

Great venue for a wedding. Beautiful views

Great place to take kids!

Great venue for events. Right on the water. Beautiful setting. It does smell like an old building though!

Nice outdoor venue for weekly neighborhood music listening

Great little historical museum. The staff was great too. A must see, will not take much of your time.

Avery nice unique venue for a wedding. Parking is limited.

Very informative. Museum is surrounded by water and boats. Quaint.

Very interesting but very small. A person could view all the exhibits in roughly 15 minutes.

Cute oyster museum with helpful guide

A small museum which was used as oyster shucking place before. Not much to see but the view from outside deck of the bay is pretty good.

The museum was small but interesting.

This welcoming little museum greets you with a small free parking lot and a tiny outdoor park with sturdy wooden bench, historic work boats on display, piers to view the bay, and a free public canoe launch. Inside the museum building youll find a large aquarium you can step into (behind glass) with handy touch screen information, a boat kids can climb board, and interesting displays about the creatures of the Chesapeake Bay and the historical seafood industry in Annapolis. Includes nice public restrooms, a tiny gift shop, and a large rentable events room lined with regional art photography.

Amazing place! Great for kids and old kids young at heart.

Not the most exciting place, the museum is small but the history is very interesting when the voulenteer tells you about it.

I really enjoyed the slice of Maryland history this museum shared with me. Cant wait until the new boat exhibit is ready.

Cool place to spend about an hour. Not much parking though.

This is a really great museum that used to be an oyster packing facility years ago. There are three vintage wooden oyster & crab harvesting boats outside and a couple inside. Plenty of history & photos here about the Chesapeake Bay oyster harvesting industry that peaked a long time ago.

Great little museum! Very informative about the oyster industry. Very interesting.

Free... very quick self guided tour if you want. There was a gentleman there if you had any questions, and they have a small selection of souvineres for purchase.

I really enjoyed the docent, as he took the time to show us around

Went for a wedding reception. It was very nice and had a nice outside deck

A special place to learn about life on and in the Chesapeake Bay.

I have to take a moment to thank the awesome team at the Annapolis Maritime Museum for being such all stars both during the wedding planning process on our big day. My husband and I fell in love with the museum at our first visit with Cindy. Its just a special, super neat space. We loved the more industrial feel and it was definitely the Annapolis, non-hotel, waterfront location that we were looking for. It was the first venue we looked at the one we compared all other site visits to.Even though the space is relatively compact space, it definitely works for a big event. We had 150 guests plus a band and sit down dinner and were able to make the number work comfortably by breaking down a few tables after dinner to give us some breather room for dancing. The newly tented deck is gorgeous. And despite the fact that it ended up snowing on our wedding day in April(!!!), we were able to bring in space heaters at the last minute and it made the space completely usable all night even with temperatures in the 30s (note: that took three industrial space heaters, rented through Absolute Party Rental who were also great!).I will admit that I was a higher maintenance bride. I think I made at least 10 visits to the museum pre-wedding and thats being conservative. The patience, kindness and partnership extended to me by Cindy and Paige was absolutely amazing. They made me feel like our day was important in the midst of the hundreds of other events and activities going on at the museum. They were such a pleasure to work with and our trust in them was well deserved. When it was all said and done, our wedding day was perfect and flawless and I couldnt thank these ladies enough for that. I would highly recommend the Annapolis Maritime Museum as a fantastic wedding venue and look forward to going to many other events there in the years to come!

Small but interesting museum. The one staff person was very friendly.

We went for the oyster festival and loved it!

Closed for the season, but on walking distance.

Annual Eastport Oyster Roast and Sock Burning! Awesome !

Art gallery, Chesapeake Bay educational displays and programs and excellent lectures. A wonderful place for a family visit.

Nicely done ,.perfect spot on a nice day .Friendly staff on hand.

This small museum is a gem. There is not only the story of oysters as an important economic influence, but the numerous hands on exhibits of the boats used to harvest them. They also have local art displayed. From their dock you will get a great view of Back Creek, the towers on Greenbury Point, and Chesapeake Bay. Unique place to have a picnic.

Great place for z wander along the front and soak up some history

A gem of a museum! Inside the museum there are exhibits showing how the oysters were harvested and then canned with tons of photos.The exploded boat (maybe sawed in half would be a better description) with a list of the parts is very cool, it lets you see just how the oyster boat is constructed.Then there are two boats outside that are very interesting as well. One is a draketail and it just looks like it is built for speed. Cant imagine working from its deck with an oyster tong in my hands... The other outside boat is a bugeye sailboat, if memory serves. Just a beautiful craft.Plus there is a very nice shaded dock area with views of the marina and creek with the bay in the background.Great place to visit! It is free, but hit the Donation jar at the entry if you can!

Great venue for a party

Great place to work and to relax Thats where you want to be.

Interesting piece of history and cant be the price.

Great place for public water access - two piers out into back creek for fishing, crabbing, bird watching, photography, etc. You can see the Bay Bridge and Chesapeake Bay from here. Inside you will find fun history from the waterman days of Eastport. It is also a great place to host an event. There are 3 historic boats on the premises. Dont forget to check out Wild Country Seafood closeby.

Beautiful venue for a wedding, well kept facilities and friendly staff. Thank you for a great time!

A peep into the history of East Port

Well done shows history small parking lot difficult to find a space.

Interesting displays about the oyster industry of the Chesapeake, a beautiful location and a decent lecture hall but very small museum.

Nice, small venue. Perfect for a small class field trip. Beautiful scenery right by the water.

Not very interesting. I room with a few pictures and a dissected boat.

Great educational museum connecting the past Chesapeake Bay culture with our modern day needs to maintain the health and function of the bay ecosystem.

Love the surrounding

Great place for a wedding, reception, party, get-together......

Great little museum. Worth the trip if youre in Annapolis.

My husband and I had a courthouse wedding earlier this year but still wanted to celebrate with our family and friends at some point. We went to a rehearsal dinner at the Museum a couple of years ago and I fell in love with it. So, when we decided we wanted to have the celebration in Annapolis (my husbands hometown) I only looked at one venue. The Museum is just so unique, low-key, and genuinely Annapolis. I also loved giving our venue money to a Museum and good cause. Once we met Paige to tour the venue and knew our date was available, we were set. Paige was very responsive to our request to set up a meeting and flexible with our limited availability to meet (we do not live in the area).Since we were already married we did not have a ceremony at the Museum, just a December reception for 126 guests starting at 6pm. When you tour the space, it seems like the capacity of 150 would be tight, but we ended up having plenty of room. It was also daylight when we toured the space, so were bummed that it would be dark by the time our guests arrived and they wouldnt really get the water views, but the venue looked GORGEOUS at night. We went with all white tables, chairs, tablecloths, plateware, etc and gold accents (framed pictures, table numbers, vases, votives, etc) and white and green bouquets and it looked amazing. We had two heaters outside on the tented deck and guests loved being out there for the raw bar, drinks, apps, dessert, etc. I loved that we didnt have to worry about weather - it was nice that it didnt rain/snow for outdoor pictures prior but it would not have put a damper on the main event at all!I could go on and on about how perfect the venue was. So many guests asked us how we found it. The only downsides (which Im not going to dock any points for since we knew all of this going in) were that the party has to end by 10pm and that buses cant get all the way down to the venue. Could not recommend AMM more!!!

Great event space, and interesting exhibits!

No air conditioning on July 5th

Great little gem of a museum on the local commercial history and on the bay ecology.

They have a great display of Annapolis maritime, oyster history. I take my students for their fieldtrips 2 times per year. Wonderful program with dedicated staff and vlounteers.

Best wedding ever!

Museum brings conservation awareness of the Marine environment to children in a fun way .

Beautiful place to hold a wedding reception

A small museum in a great spot on the water, lots of interactives for the young at heart

This museum was very cute, nice small museum to visit. It seemed to be more about oyster harvesting/canning on the bay than it did about boats in general.

Great location very clean and pretty

Nice place

Wonderful! This museum is not to be missed when visiting Annapolis!

Great homeschool field trip experience. Knowledgeable and friendly staff educators!
