DiscoverSea Shipwreck Museum

Reviewed By crutt13 - Pottstown, United States

This is certainly a place that anyone could easily overlook. It's nestled on the second floor of a gift shop. Access is free, but donations are welcomed. The museum is small but is packed with recovered artifacts. The artifacts are well preserved in most cases and have good descriptions. You can even purchase some of the smaller items. The museum is small enough that you can be in and out in 15-30 minutes(if you don't read everything). My 3 and 5 yeat old were interested in several items, but sped through in about 20 minutes. The gift store downstairs is fairly big and you can purchase an assortment of cheap toys and decorative sea items. I'd recommend a stopping in.

Fenwick Island Lighthouse

Good for those wh love lighthouses. It has an interesting story. It is built on the Maryland/Delaware line. We weren't able to climb, but we were able to go inside and look at the historical records and photos.

Transpeninsular Marker

Reviewed By 100beckyh

This is the dividing marker between Maryland and Delaware. The interesting thing is that, although it has Maryland's symbol on one side, it has Pennsylvania's on the other (not Delaware's). Delaware was once a part of PA. The lighthouse right behind it is on this line.
