What
to Expect at the
Roanoke Island
Maritime Museum
The Museum offers a variety of
educational programs and interpretive exhibits through
out the year.
Interpret ive exhibits include
examples of traditional small
watercraft built and sailed on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
Featured at the Museum is a North Carolina Shad boat and early
commercial fishing exhibit featuring the 1883 Shad boat Ella
View, and exhibits on regional boat building.
The museum’s education programs focus on the use, construction
and celebration of traditional watercraft and related maritime
activities. During the
summer months sailing, traditional boat handling, and boating safety
courses are offered as part of the museum’s Outer Banks Community
Sailing Program.
Come experience the workings of a traditional boat shop in the
George Washington Creef Boathouse and visit the Roanoke Marshes
lighthouse.
Visitors to the boathouse are met by the smell of cedar and a
group of enthusiastic volunteers and staff.
We encourage questions about traditional building practices and
local maritime history.
The Roanoke Marshes lighthouse marks the entrance into
Dough’s Creek and is a replica of the 1877 screw pile lighthouse once
located in Croatan Sound. Inside
are seasonal exhibits focusing on regional maritime history and on the
history of the Marshes lighthouse. In
the evening, watch for the lighting of the beacon, a 4th
order Fresnel lens, that can be viewed in
Shallowbag
Bay
and surrounding
waters.
