Great little museum/historical society that we all managed to get something out of (A 34 y.o who loves history, a 22 year old, a 4year old and a 5year old)
I would call it more of a historical society as opposed to a museum but only by way of knowing what to expect. I didn't really research it before we went and expected something more museum like however we were not disapointed.

The staff are lovely and at only $13 for family entry it was a great little activity.Fully airconditioned too which was pleasant.

The place is full of Far North Queensland (and Australian)history and artefacts. There is an area for kids to colour in, some interactive displays and also has a 'link trainer' which is a plane simulater used in wartime that the kids can actually sit in and receive a certificate for.

The displays are well set out and really quite well done. Staff are lovely, very friendly and knowledgeable.
There is also a great little museum shop at the ground level.

Well worth a visit
