Located
at the Santa Barbara Waterfront Center, in the heart of a working
harbor, the Maritime Museum is surrounded by colorful ocean crafts,
busy fishermen and shopkeepers, and vast sea-life. Visitors enjoy a
perfect combination of high technology and warm friendliness. Rare
artifacts and priceless memorabilia tell a colorful story of Chumash
settlements on the Channel Islands, impact of Spanish ships arriving
at Presidio Santa Barbara, ensuing 19th century hide trade at
Refugio and shore whaling at Goleta Beach. The story reaches into
the 20th century to explore the hapless wreck of seven Navy
destroyers on the rocks at Honda, and the revolution in diving
wrought with discovery of oil beneath the ocean floor as
demonstrated by a scale model of a channel oil rig.
