Titanic Museum
Located on the west side of Highway 76, the Titanic museum is two years old. It's an attraction that stands out from the rest. The museum is designed similar to the Titanic ship, complete with water and an iceberg in the front of the display. A guide will give the tour, showing actual items from the Titanic. Other interesting things in the museum include the audio room, where guests can hear actual survivors of the wreck tell their stories. Take a stroll down the grand staircase, an exact replica of the original ship. The 90 minute self-guided tour allows passengers to send an S.O.S, see the largest Titanic model on display, touch an 'iceberg' and view over 400 artifacts from the Titanic. Titanic Museum
