About Man-O-War Heritage Museum

Man-O-War Cay was one of the early Loyalist settlements in the Abacos, and its families have built boats for generations. The museum, in a small wooden house built in the 1800s on Pappy Ben Hill, keeps archives and artefacts of that boat-building legacy. It opens a few mornings a week.
