Honolulu - Hawaii Maritime Center, Falls of Clyde (closed)

The Hawaii Maritime Center displays maritime historical displays such as Polynesian navigation, whaling history in Hawaii, shipping companies which served Hawaii, plus the romantic days when ocean liners and flying clippers were the prime way of getting to the islands.

The museum has a ten-story tower, the Aloha Tower, with good views of the harbor.

Tied up alongside the pier on which the museum sits is the four-masted sailing ship Falls of Clyde. This square-rigger was build in 1878 started its career running passengers and freight between San Francisco and the islands. The Falls of Clyde ended its days as an oil tanker under sail.
