The Marine Museum of Manitoba was established in 1972. The museum provides tourists with a hands-on heritage experience.

You will be taught the history of the development and operation of marine life on Lake Winnipeg and the Red River as well as the role the port of Selkirk played in the development of Manitoba. At the museum, you will get to board actual ships that navigated the world’s tenth-largest lake.

Some of the ships you will get to see and possibly board are the S.S. Keenora, C.G.S. Bradbury, Chickama II, and The Peguis II.
