The Australian National Maritime Museum is fascinating! It exhibits explain Australia’s history with the sea, beginning with the Aboriginal people, the Dutch’s first sighting of the continent in 1606 and the arrival of Captain James Cook in 1770. The story continues through the current relationship with the United States, a gallery funded by the U. S. ANMM was designed by Philip Cox and opened in 1991 below the Pyrmont Bridge on the west side of Darling Harbour.
