★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a nice museum. My 2 granddaughters ages 8 and 5 enjoyed it immensely. Found it very interesting and lots of activities for the girls. This museum's greatest asset is its staff. We came in contact with 3 ladies. All very friendly and knowledgeable. They went out of their way to be welcoming and informative and made the girls very comfortable. They were interesting to talk to. This was the girls Pro D Day. Nice time!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you like fish, history, canning, machines, Canadiana, and museums. This is the place for you. A seriously unique and well maintained museum on the rich history of fishing and canning in British Columbia. Very educational. There are a ton of old machines, fishing paraphernalia, and displays here. Keep an eye on the walls to see decade old fish scales!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ So much to see here! Not just about the 125+ years and the various lives this facility has taken on, but also information on fishing, industry, immigrant workers at the turn of the 20th century, and more. The guided school tour was very informative and interactive. The facility itself is very well maintained, loads to look at and interact with. Well stocked gift shop too!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A great place to explore. Wear a sweater or jacket as it's quite cool inside. They have a very comprehensive display of the history of canning on the west coast, and in this plant in particular. Lots of unique equipment and tools and a very comprehensive history with pictures and signage. 30 to 45 minutes with a nice attached gift shop and knowledgeable and very friendly staff.
