Contact Us If you are interested in old vessels, as well as the future development of e.g. the fishing industry, then you should pay the "South African Maritime Museum" in Cape Town a visit.
The museum does not only feature a section devoted to the history of the port, shipping lines and a big number of shipwrecks, but also two ships open for visitors, moored in various parts of the habor. These ships are firstly the "Alwyn Vincent", a steam tug launched in Venice in 1859, and secondly the "SAS Somerset", the last existing "boom defence vessel" from the year 1941, located in the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront.
All this makes the South African Maritime Museum a major attraction and a definite destination on the map of everyone interested in the sea.
