The Maryport Steamship Museum tells about the shipbuilding industry in the town and offers tours of two ships, a River Clyde steam tug the Flying Buzzard (1951), and a WW II supply ship, the VIC 96 (1945). The tour allows hands-on experiences. Also on display are a 1908 steam yacht and a trading schooner.

Maryport Steamship Museum at Maryport is 6 miles northeast of Workington on the A596/A594.
