St. Roch in Vancouver

A wonderful museum for adults and kids alike.

A slice of heaven. A life size diorama that is a time machine to a distant past of adventure and the finest of RCMP law enforcement. It makes one wish they too was aboard the ship during the days of high adventure.

Great place on a rainy day. interesting history

A wonderful interactive exploration of an old RCMP ship. Really enjoyed it and learned some interesting Canadian history

I’ve been in the museum with my father and some relatives and we enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. All the exposition is very interesting and it helps us tomunderstand how difficult was to live in the northern regions of Canada. My dad loved to see, and listen the history of the St Roch RCMP ship and the highlight moment of the visit is when you can go inside the ship. I will probably revisit the museum if I have chance.

Hands on connection with real Canadian history in the Vancouver Maritime Museum

Helps visitor make sense of our province.

Very informative and interesting. A piece of Canadian history. If you like the sea you will like this.

As a log salvor I felt a little sorry for the tourists who had to listen to our familys cries of delight over the recorded wind sound-effects while my husband and our two children investigated the ship thoroughly, prying into cabins, reading cans of food in open cupboards, comparing the men’s foul weather gear with our own modern Helly-Hansen suits, gazing at realistically stuffed husky dogs and a walrus body on deck, criticising marine hardware, rope, tools, lamps and other items. I remember how oblivious the four of us became to the presence of others as we interacted and appreciated all these things from our vocal and personal marine perspective. A fascinating look into the past which I shall repeat with my grandchildren--also from a beachcombers family!

A great museum to see the maritime history of British Columbia. We usually come here when the weather is too wet outside to be on the beach. - A Richard Trus review
