Housed in a 1903 former Life-Saving Station, the museum tells the story of the men who served in the US Life-Saving Service and the US Coast Guard. Visitors to the museum galleries are given an insight into the early days of shipwrecks along the Virginia coast and the efforts of the life-savers at the stations. Our interactive tower camera enables the visitor to view vessels entering the port of Hampton Roads as well and scan the new boardwalk and beach.
