Fall 2020
The "Twin Palaces of the Pacific"
S.S. Great Northern & S.S. Northern Pacific
"The fastest and most luxurious twin ships in the Pacific now providing a new route between San Francisco and Portland via Astoria"
Marketed to showcase speed and luxury of travel - by far the most delightful travel route between San Francisco and Astoria
is the "ocean way" on the floating "Palaces of the Pacific", the S.S. Great Northern and S.S. Northern Pacific each of which provide a
pleasant and expeditious trip with all the comforts and luxuries of a first-class hotel.
Plan to visit the Museum and see the newest exhibit featuring these twin beauties that changed west coast travel starting in 1915.
Plan to visit for
Shipwrecks! Causes and Consequences on Oregon Shores
with a planned opening Spring 2021.
This exhibit explores the hows and whys of shipwrecks, takes a look at what we can learn from them and how to prevent them, and helps us understand the emotional, physical, and financial toll shipwrecks exact. We also examine the work of the underwater archeologist, and how they attempt to piece together the clues that help us understand shipwrecks better.
