Delmarva Discovery Center & Museum

The Discovery Museum is a hands-on and interactive learning center for guests of all ages.  Our universally accessible exhibits feature the natural and cultural histories of Delmarva.

One of our most popular exhibits is the Wally Gordon River Otter habitat where our two river otters, Mac & Tuck, play in their 6,000 gallon aquarium and extensive land area.  Another is our Hazel Saltwater Touch Pool where visitors can have a hands on, up-close encounter with horseshoe crabs, starfish, eels and other marine creatures of Delmarva.

Other attractions include a walk through replica steamboat, Native American exhibit, life-sized beaver lodge, decoy &, boat building displays  and a variety of other live animals. 

Our Museum gift shop features local authors and artisans as well as children’s books and toys.

We offer engaging and educational programs and host a variety of special events.
