Nice little museum right by downtown Sayville. Entry fee was reasonable and staff/volunteers were all very friendly. The museum has several buildings with active boat building for charity and displays. Stop by if you are in the area!
It’s an okay experience. There’s a lot to see and you can see it very quickly.
You don’t have a tour guide , they’ll explain all the buildings at the start then you’ll just have to navigate it on your own. Be sure to read the map they give up, it has valuable information as you try to navigate the grounds.
Parking was easy to find and we were the only visitors there.
I got the pass free from my library but I believe it costs about $10 to go inside.
After walking, I recommend siting by the beachside. The view is amazing.
This will take you at-least 30 minutes as not all the buildings are open, well on a Saturday. Be careful of your little ones going close to the boardwalk so they don’t fall into the water.
The place is also great if you’re trying to create content.
LIMM is an excellent place to have fun learning about local maritime history in a gorgeous setting. Situated on the Great South Bay, exhibits and activities for young and old alike. Spend the afternoon, you won’t regret it. Book a sail on Priscilla for an amazing experience as well.
It was our first time visiting and we set up a homeschool field trip. The inside museum is very small but has a lot of interesting things to see. There are other buildings and things to see on the property as well. We also received an educational demonstration from one of the docents all about how he test the water and the weather and uses the instruments. Kids enjoyed it.
