Housed aboard the historic sternwheeler Portland, docked on the Willamette River, the Oregon Maritime Museum offers exhibits on river navigation, shipbuilding, and maritime trade. Visitors can tour the vessel’s engine room and pilot house while learning about Portland’s river economy. It’s a unique floating museum and a worthwhile stop near Tom McCall Waterfront Park.
