Children will enjoy a visit to this museum at Santa Barbara's harbor. Exhibits show the development of seafaring vessels around Santa Barbara, from handmade Chumash canoes to scale models of modern warships. There is even a working submarine periscope to check out the action in the harbor, plus other hands-on displays. Upstairs, the museum shows films with maritime themes in its 100-seat high-definition theater built in the shape of a boat hull.
