Just went by and it was close. Google says it's open, but there is a big sign in the window that says otherwise... Very disappointed. I was looking forward to this visit.
A must-see for anyone visiting Twillingate and well worth the visit even if you have to do a detour! Captain Dave was very engaging has established a wonderful historic and educational series of structures and artifacts, along with videos that provide a wonderful glimpse into the Cod industry.
This is a must see! Captain Dave is so knowledgeable about fishing, his museum is packed full of interesting items..dont miss this!
