The Age of Sail represents a time when wind-powered vessels dominated global exploration, trade, and naval warfare. Aboard the historic 1863 bark Star of India, visitors can step back in time to experience the peak of sailing technology before steam engines reshaped maritime travel.

Displays allow guests to ponder the skills required to sail a tall ship, from setting sails to steering by the stars. These immersive experiences highlight the ingenuity and resilience of those who braved the open ocean.
