It’s 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐲! ⚓🌊

Here at Independence Seaport Museum. Philadelphia’s maritime history is a driving force in our collections and interpretation.

Did you know that when we were founded over 60 years ago, our name was the Philadelphia Maritime Museum? And to this day, we remain dedicated to discovering the history of the Philadelphia region through the lens of the Delaware River.

This week is a scorcher, but sunset on the water is a great time to enjoy being outside and beat the heat! Come sail with us and feel the breeze as we explore the waterfront and its history.

Sailing is a time when life can slow down and allow us to reconnect with nature and the environment around us. Life moves fast these days, so come aboard SV First Light for a recharge! Check our website for calender availability.

Boating at night is such a special time. The city lights up, helping to guide us along the river as we take in the views. And SV First Light also "lights" up - here you see the cabin in night running lights, bathing the cabin in red.

We wish everyone a wonderful end of the year, and happy holidays!
