The Maritime Museum of San Diego enjoys a worldwide reputation for excellence in restoring, maintaining and operating historic vessels. The museum has one of the world's finest collections of historic ships, including the world's oldest active ship, the Star of India.

It stages popular public events such as: The Chocolate Festival, Pirate Buccaneer Birthday Bash, Festival of Sail (Labor Day weekend), and family sleepovers on the Star of India.
