Overlooking the sparkling Indian Ocean, the Museum of Geraldton showcases the fascinating heritage of the land, sea, and people of Western Australia’s Mid-West region. Discover captivating maritime history in the Shipwrecks Gallery, where the remains of four Dutch shipwrecks — Batavia, Gilt Dragon, Zuytdorp, and Zeewijk — are brought to life through interactive displays.
Join a guided highlights tour offered daily at 11:30am to uncover stories of exploration, tragedy, and discovery. The museum’s From Great Depths exhibit features an emotional 3D film revealing the resting places of HMAS Sydney (II) and HSK Kormoran, lying 2,500 metres beneath the ocean surface.
A must-visit attraction in Geraldton, the museum connects visitors to the region’s maritime legacy and its surrounding ocean wonders — from nearby islands ideal for diving, fishing, snorkelling, and cray fishing to rich bird and marine life experiences along the Coral Coast.
