Reviews of Tuckerton Seaport Museum
"Cool place with lots of interesting tidbits. $5 an adult and daughter was free. Very much worth the walk around."
"Outstanding! My children (11 and 7) loved all the hands on exhibits- especially the typewriter and the sand boxes. This whole site is an absolute treasure for education and preservation. Having a replica of the lighthouse is such a special treat. It's clear that a lot of heart and soul went into curating each exhibit on the property. Having the games, crafts, and admission included in the cost for the boat tour was a godsend for a family on a budget. My kids loved every aspect of our adventure and didn't want to leave when it was time to go. All of the Halloween touches were so much fun!! This was our first visit and we all fell in love with the seaport so we'll definitely be back!"
"A terrific local museum showcasing life around Tuckerton, from decoy making to clamming. Lots of hands-on displays for kids to enjoy, and lots of info on local bay heritage and conservation as well. Local creek tours via boat rides are available too!"
"Wonderful experience. We took the ferry to Beach Haven & back on Labor Day weekend with family from out of state. Fun & interesting things learned from the guides, inexpensive gift shop with a small historical museum. Will definitely do it again. Expect some bay water splashes crossing the bay. It was the end of August and we all benefited from having a cover-up on the afternoon trip back to Tuckerton."
"Pleasantly surprised by all the cool shops and out buildings turned museums! I was expecting to just visit a lighthouse but got to see all kinds of cool things like a decoy carving shop, a surfing museum and a steampunk tea house! This should definitely be a place to visit if you like touring lighthouses and would like to learn more about the past in this area of NJ."
