Aberdeen's Maritime Museum is a fantastic place to learn about the rich history of Aberdeen's relationship with the sea. There are terrific exhibitions in place to be enjoyed by people of all ages and a café on site too.

Great museum, suitable for all ages. A good detail of history around Aberdeen too, from the sailing and boats to oil and gas industry.
