点评:This is a lovely, small museum that makes me appreciate the wonders of the Cape Cod canal, why it was important, and how hard it was to build it. There is a continuously running, free movie that gives you the history up to present day and how the canal is used. Make sure you watch the beginning to see the fascinating attempts at building and enlarging the canal. I developed a better appreciation for the Army Corp of Engineers who were tasked enlarging the canal and to make it more safe.
In the museum, there information about the Army Corp of Engineers, a boat that you can climb on, information about navigation through the canal, interactive ship knot tying exhibit to try your hand, dried sea life touch exhibit, and some other fun kid-friendly activities.
You only need an hour there. There is a small gift shop. Outside, in a separate building, there are public bathrooms. Plenty of parking. You can walk to the canal and to the beach. You can see people fishing or playing in the water. The beach is rocky. If you stand on the shore and stare at the water, you will likely spot a cormorant or perhaps even a seal or watch a boat come by.
Walking distance away was Seafood Sam's which had excellent fried clam strips, fish and a really good lobster roll at a reasonable price plus an assortment of other food and a bar. Order at the counter and then take it to an inside or outside table or order at the bar.
At the visitor center, there are friendly, helpful staff.
翻译:这是一个可爱的小博物馆,让我领略了科德角运河的奇妙之处,了解了它的重要性以及修建运河的艰辛。博物馆里有一部连续播放的免费电影,向您介绍运河的历史以及运河的用途。一定要从头开始看,看看修建和扩建运河的迷人尝试。我对陆军工程兵团有了更深的了解,他们负责扩建运河,使其更加安全。
博物馆里有关于陆军工程兵团的信息、可以爬上的船、关于穿越运河的信息、可以尝试的互动式船结打结展览、干海生物触摸展览,以及其他一些适合儿童的有趣活动。
你只需要在那里待一个小时。博物馆里有一家小礼品店。外面,在一栋独立的建筑里,有公共卫生间。停车场充足。你可以步行到运河和海滩。你可以看到人们在钓鱼或在水中玩耍。海滩是岩石海滩。如果您站在岸边凝视水面,您可能会看到一只鸬鹚,甚至可能是一只海豹,或者看到一艘船驶过。
步行不远就是 Seafood Sam's,那里有美味的炸蛤蜊条、鱼和非常美味的龙虾卷,价格合理,还有各种其他食物和酒吧。在柜台点餐,然后带到室内或室外的桌子上,或者在酒吧点餐。
在游客中心,有友好、乐于助人的工作人员。
