The Mel Fisher Museum was really interesting. They had tons of artifacts that were recovered from shipwrecks, and the displays explained in detail how everything was discovered. What stuck with me the most was how much they went into the history of the slave trade, it was heavy but really eye-opening. Overall, super detailed and definitely worth the visit.
