I attempted to visit the museum today. However, it was closed for some sort of repair...

Very small, had some interesting facts about the area as well as some weird stuff like a blue whale embryo, old medical equipment, as well as heaps of old photos depicting the whaling origins of the area. It was free on the day which was preferring as I don't think it would have been worth an entry fee.

A very small museum that charges an entry fee. Has good history on Picton, but would be much better if it was free/donation like other museums
