Victor Harbor National Trust Museum

Galleries, Museums and Collections

Victor Harbor National Trust Museum a little gem located close to all the popular attractions on Flinders Parade. A museum that will transport you back in time to when Victor Harbor was a thriving pioneer port and then a seaside resort for the high society of Adelaide. Discover the stories relating to the encounter of Flinders and Baudin in 1802, the sometimes-gruesome whaling history and its connection to the early maritime history of South Australia as the main port of the Colony.

Imagine life as it was as Victor Harbor transitioned to a popular seaside resort after the river trade was diverted from Morgan to Port Adelaide by rail.
Take a stroll through the 1866 built Custom and Harbour Master's House and garden and be transported back to a time when Guest Houses were the sort after summertime accommodation for holiday makers.

The museum has interactive displays and activities for all ages. School and Tour groups are always welcome.

A well-stocked gift shop to tempt you is found at the reception area. The premises are wheelchair friendly with bus parking and free carparking adjacent.

The Victor Harbor National Trust Museum is conveniently located next to picnic areas and the start of the famous causeway with its horse drawn tram and of course the railway station is not far away either.
