Northumberland Fisheries Museum

Local museum on the fishing life of the Northumberland Strait, with boats, gear, and harbour stories.

This waterfront museum fills in the working side of Pictou's harbour. Exhibits cover lobster fishing, boatbuilding, local sea life, and the tools used by generations of fishers on the Northumberland Strait.

It is a modest museum, but a good one if you want the town to feel like more than a ferry-road stop.
