Very interesting and informative the guid was especially helpful with assisting us and answering questions, for me it invoked some very moving memories as my own dad prosecuted the seal fishery/hunt

Great place!

I was so moved by the struggle and sacrifice of the sealers and their loved ones. The art work and personal stories, in particular, made me emotional. What a tribute!

Very informative well worth the small admission price. A real insight if how difficult life was in those days

S

An extremely professional permanent exhibit detailing the sealing trade and those involved for the past few hundred years. Great pictures, videos, and stories about the life of a sealer, including heart breaking stories about those who perished during sealing hunts. There are also some massive wall-sized art pieces well worth checking out.

It's ok the right side is loaded with history of the seal tragedy. I'll let you find that out yourself cause it effects people in different ways.

An excellent museum showing the dangerous and difficult life of those who went out on the sealing boats. I came away with a deep respect for these men and boys. Follow your time at the museum with a trip to the Sealers Memorial just down the road.

The museum has a series of paintings that depict sealers stranded on the ice. A very touching tribute to those lost.Also, history of the sealing fleet is well displayed. I've been there twice and would go again when nearby.
