Why you should go…

The Madaket has worked Humboldt Bay since 1910, once carrying mill workers across the water and now running as a National Register-listed excursion boat. The Humboldt Bay Maritime Museum operates narrated cruises past old mill sites, wildlife-rich mudflats and the bay's working waterfront. Seasonal sunset and history-focused departures run alongside the standard daytime tour.
