The Nautical Museum of Greece, Piraeus:

With exhibits from all periods of Greek history, the nautically-minded will easily pass an hour or two exploring the shipping history of Greece.

Modeling the Minoans:

An early Minoan vessel is depicted in a hand-made wooden model.

Gift Shop at the Nautical Museum:

The gift shop is small but offers a selection of jewelry, books, booklets, and other items. Many of the books and booklets are in Greek, but there are a few in other languages as well.
